honky tonk stage

Luke Bryan

Dear lord i need a minute of your precious time
I got somethin kinda heavy weighin on my mind
You know there s a lotta things i don t understand
Like how you filled the oceans, made the mountains tall
Hear everybody s prayers, how do you get to them all?
I got a few myself, so if you can

Let me live, til i can t live no more
And let me love, that s what you made me for
And let me sing to a full dance floor
for the rest of my days
And let me die on a honky tonk stage

You helped me build this house i ve been payin off
Don t mean to sound ungrateful but it ain t home
It ain t smokey, loud and rowdy, and full of my friends
Let me be on the last line of set em up joe
When you tap me on the shoulder, say son, let s go
Lord if it matters at all that s how i d like it to end
But til then

Let me live, til i can t live no more
And let me love, that s what you made me for
And let me sing to a full dance floor
for the rest of my days
And let me die on a honky tonk stage

You won t ever hear me want more money in the bank
My name up in lights and worldwide fame
Or pray for better looks in my older days
But it d sure be nice, if when i close my eyes
I m on a honky tonk stage
Behind a chicken wire cage
