Give it up to the lord above
And to this life I'm living
and the music that I play
One more just for my baby,
living proof of why I pray now
Well I've been living on a bus,
keeps on rolling through the land
Walkin' around with a suitcase
Rackin' up frequent five miles
more than any man can use
Payin' off every cell phone bill
Still I get them talkin' blues
Don't get me wrong, I love the light
And I love the music and my friends
But there's nothin' I like
That the man who's keepin' score
It's gonna shine his light upon me
When my world fades out of me
Give it up to the Lord above
And to this life I'm living
And the music that I play
One more just for my baby
Living proof of why I pray
You said another night in heaven
Two hundred miles to the next show,
but I guess it's just as well
Cause some people say in the world today
you know that life gets pretty tough
I do declare, I bet don't kill you,
still get handled pretty rough
Don't get me wrong, I love the life
And I love the music and my friends
But there's nothin' I like
That the man who's keepin' score
Is gonna shine his light upon me
When my world takes outta me
Give it up to the Lord above
And to this life I'm livin'
And the music that I play
One more just for my baby
Livin' proof of why I pray
Now praise to the whiskey,
Give it up to the Lord above
And to this life I'm living
and the music that I play
One more just for my baby,
Give it up to the Lord above
And to this life I'm livin'
One more, just pour my baby
a little proof of why I pray
Praise to the whiskey, I said
Oh, to this life I'm livin'
One more, just pour my baby
a little proof of why I pray
Praise to the rising of the sun
And to the love of your nature, man
And to this life I'm living
and the music that I play
One morning for my baby liv
