Tailgate Prayer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You pulled in late In that red dirt rain Two boots on the porch And a tired last name You said, "Boy, let's talk" Like you knew my pain Then you laughed real soft At the screen door slam [Pre-Chorus] And I was just a wreck With my cap in my hands You said, "Hold up, son We all need a plan" [Chorus] Pour me a little hope Pour me a little time Let that old truck roll On a borrowed line When the dust blows hard And the day goes wrong We sing it back We keep on strong Pour me a little hope Pour me a little hope [Verse 2] Mama's cast iron pan On a Sunday flame Granddad's Bible by the sink With his worn-out name You fixed that fence Like you meant to stay Then you passed me the wrench And you walked away [Pre-Chorus] And I saw in your grin What I needed to know That a hard old heart Can still come home [Chorus] Pour me a little hope Pour me a little time Let that old truck roll On a borrowed line When the dust blows hard And the day goes wrong We sing it back We keep on strong Pour me a little hope Pour me a little hope [Bridge] I don't need gold I don't need shine Just a porch light burnin' And a hand in mine If the road gets steep If the well runs dry We'll laugh through the ache Till the ache goes by [Chorus] Pour me a little hope Pour me a little time Let that old truck roll On a borrowed line When the dust blows hard And the day goes wrong We sing it back We keep on strong Pour me a little hope Pour me a little hope
