every time i say amen

(album: Tulip Drive - 2022)

For tractors cutting stripes in dirt
For old crow medicine show t-shirts
For July sunburn skin that hurts
And cherry bomb red lip kiss fireworks
For clothesline jeans drip dry-ing
Buck shot stop signs 2 AM
For can't help laughs with some good ole friends
Every time I say amen, it's for the

Long roads that wind up nowhere
Wrong words you sing but you don't care
Windows that you roll down deep
My next-door Billie Jean next to me
For the first times and dreams we'll make here
Hell, corn, and kids we'll raise here
To be American born and born again
I thank him
Every time I say amen

For the last cold can on a six-pack ring
That handshake money back guarantee
That I love small town beauty queen
She fits right there on the movie screen
For the glass half full new grass revival
SNL on a TV dial
No matter where I go I'm back again
Every time I say amen, it's for the...

Long roads that wind up nowhere
Wrong words you sing but you don't care
Windows that you roll down deep
My next-door Billie Jean next to me
For the first times and dreams we'll make here
Hell, corn, and kids we'll raise here
To be American born and born again
I thank him
Every time I say amen

Every time I say amen, I thank him, I thank him
Every time I say amen
It's for the...

Long roads that wind up nowhere
Wrong words you sing but you don't care
Windows that you roll down deep
My next-door Billie Jean next to me
For the first times and dreams we'll make here
Hell, corn, and kids we'll raise here
To be American born and born again
I thank him
Every time I say amen
Every time I say amen
Every time I say amen
Every time I say amen
Ah yeah
Every time I say amen
