lirik lagu ernest - blessed
[verse 1]
grandaddy bought this slice back in 1962
it came with a barn, a dog in the yard, and a chevrolet painted blue
well, that chevy still starts
but that old john deere’s just a~sitting there in the shed
and every time that old whippoorwill sings
i can still hear what he said
and he said
[chorus]
take time to say your prayers
even if it feels like no one’s there
round that field, plant that grain
one good rain could change everything
and there’s a good chance that where you stand
is your own little piece of the promised land
if the star’s still spangled and the dirt’s still red
and there’s a roof still over your head
you’re blessed
[verse 2]
now i’m all grown, i got a kid of my own
and he wants to learn how to fish
we’re standing at the pond, digging up a rod, thinking
“god, would you look at this?”
he looked up at me, said
“daddy, could it be that us and mama got it made?”
i said, “yes we do, and we always will
if we just remember this one thing”
and then i said
[chorus]
take time to say your prayers
even if it feels like no one’s there
round that field, plant that grain
one good rain could change everything
and there’s a good chance that where you stand
is your own little piece of the promised land
if the star’s still spangled and the dirt’s still red
and there’s a roof still over your head
you’re blessed
[post~chorus]
amen
amen
[verse 3]
well, i hope when he grows up
he passes down that word like grandad did for me
i don’t care if he’s out in california
or he’s up north, or stays put here in tennessee
this land i’m standing on now is gonna be his one day
without the shadow of a doubt
he’ll probably be fishing this pond with his old boy
and think about this right now
and he’ll say
[chorus]
take time to say your prayers
even if it feels like no one’s there
round that field, plant that grain
one good rain could change everything
and there’s a good chance that where you stand
is your own little piece of the promised land
if the star’s still spangled and the dirt’s still red
and there’s a roof still over your head
you’re blessed
