Uh I met Craig at a church called Redeeming Grace (what's up?) It's like he understood my "I don't want to be here" face I didn't bow my head, not one single prayer Well, he just shook my hand, said "I'm glad you're here" He says, "we'll all be judged" but he was never judgmental And even though my songs, they don't belong in no hymnal He'd quote me my lyrics, slap me on the back Said "Man you've got a gift! How you write like that?" Yeah, I know (I know), he sounds cool right? Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? I still ain't figured out church yet (nope) But Craig, I get Said, nah he can't walk on water or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Now, he ain't the light of the world But I wish that mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is (Nor as good) (Woo, ayy) So when you lose a record deal, y'all the perks fade fast Dealership said, "We're going to need to get that mini-van back" So we were down on one car And broke as I felt Had my wife and six kids and only five seat belts I needed help (please) but I couldn't admit I was struggling I said, "Craig, it's all good" (It's all good) But he knew it all wasn't A "Hey man I'm praying for you" would've been sufficient but nah He took roadside assistance to a whole other level, to sacrificial heights (woo) Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night In two cars, with his wife Laura, watching from the other (hey what's up, Laura) Said, "What in the world are y'all doing here, brother?" (What in the world?) He just laughed inside that old Chrysler Town and Country van With the keys and a title, and a pen in his hand Said "Man, all you got to do is sign and it's yours" I said "Nah, no, no way" But he wouldn't take "Nah" for an answer (he wouldn't take no) He said "Please dude (please dude), somebody did this for me once, just let me do this for you" We argued about it for a little while Then I teared up, and Craig smiled (woo) Said, nah he can't walk on water or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Now, he ain't the light of the world But I wish that mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is Uh Woo ooh Ayy ayy 'Sup Yeah, I know, he sounds cool right? Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? I still ain't figured out church yet But Craig, I get (ooh whoa whoa whoa whoa) Said, nah he can't walk on water or turn the Napa Valley red But he just might be tight with a man that did Well, he ain't the light of the world But I wish that mine was bright as his Yeah, he just might be tight with a man that is Well, my pride was way too ashamed to be adequately grateful at the moment But I signed the dotted lin, and I drove the kids home And when the cop pulled up beside us at the light, they didn't have to duck 'Cause thanks to Craig, they were all buckled up
