|
Like dust in the wind sand slips through your fingers |
|
Similar to shattered dreams that still linger |
|
Trying to succeed in whatever you do |
|
But the failures of the past seem to laugh and mock you |
|
I'm worse than a has been? 'Cause you say I never will be |
|
I'm just tryin to excel so you feel me |
|
'Cause boundaries are made to be broken |
|
And I'm leavin' all the namesayers chokin' |
|
On the dust that I'm kickin' up behind me |
|
It's difficult findin' words to define me |
|
The hick hop cowboy from the D-A-double L-A-S |
|
So fresh in the contest |
|
Rockin' stages like Guns and Roses |
|
I been flowin' since Madonna was strikin poses |
|
I can't quit now 'cause there's too much buzz |
|
And I'm gettin my chance because... |
|
[Chorus - Tim McGraw + Big Kenny] |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Count your blessings, can't you see? |
|
He's smilin' on you - and smilin' on me |
|
[Verse 2 - Cowboy Troy] |
|
I remember the days sittin' in the pews |
|
When I heard the preacher sayin', "Spread the news!" |
|
I was feelin' the blues 'til I had a chance to choose |
|
Now I feel the love to the soles of my shoes |
|
Try to walk in a path of the guiding light |
|
I thank the Lord for everything when I pray at night |
|
'Cause I can feel His strength, I can feel His power |
|
He's the one I turn to in my darkest hour |
|
Try to be a good man, never called a saint |
|
Never walked on water so I know I ain't |
|
I might swim in the whiskey, |
|
But I'm bathed in the blood of the Lamb |
|
If you want peace raise your hand |
|
And when Heaven comes, it won't be no drama |
|
And if you see her first say "Hi" to my mama |
|
[Chorus - Tim McGraw + Big Kenny until end] |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me |
|
Count your blessings, can't you see? |
|
He's smilin' on you - and smilin' on me |
