[Verse 1 - Cowboy Troy]
|
Like dust in the wind sand slips through your fingers
|
Similar to shattered dreams that still linger
|
Trying to succeed in whatever you do
|
But the failures of the past seem to laugh and mock you
|
I'm worse than a has been? 'Cause you say I never will be
|
I'm just tryin to excel so you feel me
|
'Cause boundaries are made to be broken
|
And I'm leavin' all the namesayers chokin'
|
On the dust that I'm kickin' up behind me
|
It's difficult findin' words to define me
|
The hick hop cowboy from the D-A-double L-A-S
|
So fresh in the contest
|
Rockin' stages like Guns and Roses
|
I been flowin' since Madonna was strikin poses
|
I can't quit now 'cause there's too much buzz
|
And I'm gettin my chance because...
|
|
[Chorus - Tim McGraw + Big Kenny]
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Count your blessings, can't you see?
|
He's smilin' on you - and smilin' on me
|
|
[Verse 2 - Cowboy Troy]
|
I remember the days sittin' in the pews
|
When I heard the preacher sayin', "Spread the news!"
|
I was feelin' the blues 'til I had a chance to choose
|
Now I feel the love to the soles of my shoes
|
Try to walk in a path of the guiding light
|
I thank the Lord for everything when I pray at night
|
'Cause I can feel His strength, I can feel His power
|
He's the one I turn to in my darkest hour
|
Try to be a good man, never called a saint
|
Never walked on water so I know I ain't
|
I might swim in the whiskey,
|
But I'm bathed in the blood of the Lamb
|
If you want peace raise your hand
|
And when Heaven comes, it won't be no drama
|
And if you see her first say "Hi" to my mama
|
|
[Chorus - Tim McGraw + Big Kenny until end]
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Somebody's Smilin' On Me
|
Count your blessings, can't you see?
|
He's smilin' on you - and smilin' on me
|
