Craig (feat. MercyMe)

Uh I met Craig at a church called Redeeming Grace It's like he understood my "I don't wanna be here" face I didn't bow my head, not one single prayer But he just shook my hand, said, "I'm glad you're here" He says, "We'll all be judged" But he was never judgemental And even though my songs don't belong in no hymna He'd quote me my lyrics, slap me on the back Said, "Man, you've got a gift! How you write like that?" Yeah, I know (I know), he sounds cool right? Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? I still ain't figured out church yet (nope) But Craig, I get So now he can't walk on water, or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Now he ain't the light of the world But I wish that mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is Woo, hey Said when you lose a record deal, yeah, all the perks fade fast Dealership said, "We're gonna need to get that mini-van back" So we were down to one car And broke as I fell Had my wife and six kids and only five seat belts I needed help (please), but couldn't admit I was struggling I said, "Craig, it's all good" (it's all good) But he knew it all wasn't A "Hey man I'm prayin' for you" would've been sufficient, but nah He took roadside assistance to a whole other level To sacrificial heights Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night In two cars, with his wife Laura watchin' from the other (what's up, brother?) I said, "What in the world are y'all doing here, brother?" He just laughed inside that old Chrysler Town and Country van With the keys, and a title, and a pen in his hand Said, "Man, all you got to do is sign and it's yours" I said "Nah, no way", but he wouldn't take "no" for an answer He said "Please do, somebody did this for me once Just let me do this for you" We argued about it for a little while Then I teared up, and Craig smiled So now he can't walk on water Or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Now he ain't the light of the world But I wish that mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is Woo-ooh Ay, ay Yeah, I know he sounds cool right? Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? I still ain't figured out church yet But Craig, I get So now he can't walk on water Or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Oh, he ain't the light of the world But I wish mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is My pride was way too ashamed to be adequately grateful at the moment But I signed the dotted line, and I drove the kids home And when the cop pulled up beside us At the light, they didn't have to duck 'Cause thanks to Craig They were all buckled up
