There's a preacher's fire in your eyes
And you smile like your mother
I'm shakin' like a Labrador
I've never been a father
Pray my broken back's your stairs
And my ceiling is your floor
And I hope you walk with Jesus through life, love and war
I'll teach you how to drive
How to fish
And skin a buck
And how to run a table saw
And still keep both your thumbs
I hope you're proud of your last name
When other people ask you
And I hope you do good things good
And bad things when you have to
There's a preachers fire in your eyes
And you smile like your mother
I'm shakin' like a Labrador
I've never been a father
Pray my broken back's your stairs
And my ceiling is your floor
And I hope you walk with Jesus through life, love and war
Boats and cars and late night bars
Turn dollars into dimes
Luck it comes and goes
But hard work wins everytime
Have fun with the ladies
Hope you find one like I did
'Cause a good wife and a baby
This is good as good can get
There's a preacher's fire in your eyes
And you smile like your mother
I'm shakin' like a Labrador
I've never been a father
Pray my broken back's your stairs
And my ceiling is your floor
And I hope you walk with Jesus through life, love and war
Yes I hope you walk with Jesus through life, love and war
