Lauren Alaina - Dirt Road Prayer Lyrics

Let the light shine on my mama
She's been worried 'bout me and I can tell she's tired
Walk my brother in a straight line
I know he's only sixteen but he's been playing with fire

Give my grandpa a little peace and quiet
I can feel the years of hard work in his hands
Make my days pass just a little bit slower
I've been running so fast I've forgotten who I am

So I go where the green grass grows
The weeds are high and the sun hangs low
Look to the sky and I say hello
Like it's the very first time

It doesn't matter how long it's been
I can talk to God like He's my best friend
Take my heart, lay it down again right there
In a dirt road prayer

He's a good guy, looks dad in the eye
And I wonder if you made him just for me
But before I fall give me patients
Until you show me where to take this

Yeah, I go where the green grass grows
The weeds are high and the sun hangs low
Look to the sky and I say hello
Like it's the very first time

It doesn't matter how long it's been
I can talk to God like He's my best friend
Take my heart, lay it down again right there
In a dirt road prayer

It's good to know I can always go
Where the green grass grows
The weeds are high and the sun hangs low
Look to the sky and I say hello, ooh yeah

Doesn't matter how long it's been
I can talk to God like He's my best friend
Take my heart, lay it down again right there
In a dirt road prayer, yeah
In a dirt road prayer, yeah, yeah
