I Kill Spiders

(albüm: Country Things, Vol. 1 - 2020)

I heard her calling my name from down the stairs
Daddy please come quick, I'm really scared
I walked into her room and sat down beside her
She said there's something way down in the sheets
Daddy please would you look, what could it be?
She held onto my arm, said maybe a spider
And I said

Whenever you're lost and in the dark
Remember you got me right in your heart
I can make anything a little bit brighter
There's nothing to fear in this big 'ol world
'Cause you got me my sweet little girl
And 'til my last breath I'll be your fighter
I kill spiders
I kill spiders

I brushed the tear off her cheek, she closed her eyes
Tucked her into the sheets, kissed her goodnight
I put together my hands and hit my knees
And I said
God up in heaven will you give me the strength
To be the dad she really needs
Give her the courage to hear me and believe
When I say

Whenever you're lost and in the dark
Remember you got me right in your heart
I can make anything a little bit brighter
There's nothing to fear in this big 'ol world
'Cause you got me my sweet little girl
And 'til my last breath I'll be your fighter
I kill spiders
I kill spiders

I could make a million bucks or be famous on TV
Yeah but that don't really matter at all
'Cause what she needs to hear from me is

Whenever you're lost and in the dark
Remember you got me right in your heart
I can make anything a little bit brighter
There's nothing to fear in this big 'ol world
'Cause you got me my sweet baby girl
And 'til my last breath I'll be your fighter
I kill spiders
I kill spiders
