Unc Told You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Unc been there, done that Seen the smoke roll black Read the room, read the map Never had to talk too fast He knew the fence got holes Knew the slick talk fold Knew the night gon' test your soul When the back road get cold [Pre-Chorus] If you must know God was in the mix Every crooked turn Still got worked out quick Better watch that step Better mind that line 'Fore you learn the hard way What it means to live right [Chorus] Unc told you about that Told you about that Better get how you live And leave it where it lay Unc told you about that Told you about that First things first, baby That's the way (Unc told you about that) (Told you about that) [Verse 2] He don't brag, he just grin Like he seen that wind Knock the best of men Off they feet again Sunday suit, Friday boots Same old truth Wrong road take your name And it won't give it back to you [Pre-Chorus] If you must know God was in the mix Every crooked turn Still got worked out quick Better watch that step Better mind that line 'Fore you learn the hard way What it means to live right [Chorus] Unc told you about that Told you about that Better get how you live And leave it where it lay Unc told you about that Told you about that First things first, baby That's the way (Unc told you about that) (Told you about that) [Bridge] Yeah, he raised a glass Then he raised the truth Said the world keep score So you better move Not every grin is kind Not every road is straight But grace still finds you If you don't run away [Final Chorus] Unc told you about that Told you about that Better get how you live And leave it where it lay Unc told you about that Told you about that If you must know, baby God was always in the mix Unc told you about that Told you about that First things first, baby That's the way (Unc told you about that) (Told you about that)
