Lyrics

0:03Like he understood my I don't want to be here face
0:06I felt out of place and I smelled like beer
0:09But he just shook my hand said I'm glad you're here
0:12He said we'll all be judged
0:13But he was never judgemental
0:14And even though my songs don't belong in no hymnal
0:17He'd quote me my lyrics slap me on the back
0:20Said man you've got a gift how you write like that
0:23I know he sounds cool right
0:25Not your typical kid from Sunday school right
0:28I still ain't figured out church yet
0:31But Craig I get
0:34Nah he can't walk on water turn the Napa Valley red
0:40But he just might be tight with a man that did
0:45Yeah he's not the light of the world
0:48But I wish that mine was bright as his
0:51Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is
1:08You lose a record deal all the perks fade fast
1:11Dealership said we're going to need to get that mini van back
1:13So we were down on one car
1:15And broke as I felt
1:17My wife and six kids with only five seat belts
1:19I needed help but couldn't admit I was strong
1:22Said Craig it's all good
1:24But he knew it all wasn't
1:25A hey man I'm praying for you would've been sufficient but nah
1:28He took roadside assistance to a
1:30Whole other level to sacrificial heights
1:33Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night
1:36In two cars with his wife barb watching from the other
1:40Said what in the world are y'all doing here brother
1:42He just laughed inside that old Chrysler town and country van
1:45With the keys and a title and a pen in his hand
1:48Said man all you got to do is sign and it's yours
1:50I said no no way
1:52But he wouldn't take no for an answer
1:54Said please do
1:56Somebody did this for me once just let me do this for you
1:59We argued about it for a little while
2:02Then I teared up and Craig smiled
2:04I know he sounds cool right
2:07Not your typical kid from Sunday school right
2:10Nah he can't walk on water turn the Napa Valley red
2:15But he just might be tight with a man that did
2:21Yeah he's not the light of the world
2:24But I wish that mine was bright as his
2:27Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is
2:43My pride was way too ashamed to be adequately grateful at the moment
2:47But I signed the dotted line and I drove the kids home
2:50And when the cop pulled up beside us
2:52At the light they didn't have to duck
2:53Because thanks to Craig
2:55They were all buckled up
Like he understood my I don't want to be here face
I felt out of place and I smelled like beer
But he just shook my hand said I'm glad you're here
He said we'll all be judged
But he was never judgemental
And even though my songs don't belong in no hymnal
He'd quote me my lyrics slap me on the back
Said man you've got a gift how you write like that
I know he sounds cool right
Not your typical kid from Sunday school right
I still ain't figured out church yet
But Craig I get
Nah he can't walk on water turn the Napa Valley red
But he just might be tight with a man that did
Yeah he's not the light of the world
But I wish that mine was bright as his
Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is
You lose a record deal all the perks fade fast
Dealership said we're going to need to get that mini van back
So we were down on one car
And broke as I felt
My wife and six kids with only five seat belts
I needed help but couldn't admit I was strong
Said Craig it's all good
But he knew it all wasn't
A hey man I'm praying for you would've been sufficient but nah
He took roadside assistance to a
Whole other level to sacrificial heights
Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night
In two cars with his wife barb watching from the other

Said man all you got to do is sign and it's yours

And when the cop pulled up beside us
At the light they didn't have to duck
Because thanks to Craig
They were all buckled up
