Lampasas Lyrics

I Hit the brakes at a stoplight on one eighty-three

First time I ever drove was in his old red Chevy 

He said let's get your grandma, she'll want to see this too

And if you get into school, I'll give this truck to you

Did you know you're the best I ever saw?

I think this year you're gonna win it all

Your daddy's got a real good team

But you're the only one that matters to me

Oh but maybe if I close my eyes

Say a prayer then it'll be alright

Wake up to a smiling sun

But the songbirds remember what they saw last night

He wiped a tear from his eye

As I drove ol red, and left Lampasas behind 

I know it was late but did ya see the game last night?

Tied at 34 into overtime

Man we were so tough, you should've seen us fight

We brought it to 'em like you taught me my whole life

Oh but maybe if I close my eyes

Say a prayer then it'll be alright

Wake up to a smiling sun

But the songbirds remember what they saw last night

I wiped a tear from my eye

As I drove ol red, and left Lampasas behind 

I sang his favorite song for everyone he loved

Made it through one verse of Brooks and Dunn

Then my tough ran out

Like it always does 

So I sat there crying while I barely strummed

Oh but maybe if I close my eyes

Say a prayer then it'll be alright

Wake up to a smiling sun

But the songbirds remember what they saw last night

Well maybe if I close my eyes

A prayer will make it feel alright

Wake up to a shining sun

But songbirds remember what they saw last night

I wipe a tear from my eye

As I drove ol red, and left Lampasas behind
