I saw the Lord when I was flat on my back Three days dead on another relapse Like a teenage Lazarus rolling somewhere out in Montana Daddy was a drunk, his momma was a drunk Things got worse when they found the harder stuff Eighth grade running down to Safeway Buy a couple snack trays for a wake 'cause the cancer came quick Oh, my, my, how can it be His grace done come and covered me Traded my shoes for a tank of gas Pawned everything for powder and a little bit of glass Seventeen running to a trap house just to get a fix Got shook up and beat up, nowhere to put my feet up Somebody told me somewhere that I sound a lot like Reba In the back of a bar singing fancy don't let me down Oh, my, my, how can it be His grace done come and covered me
