Here's a world on fire
Feels like a bad dream
Did the hammer come down?
It feels like a kick in the teeth
This down on my luck
It's been getting me down on my knees
It might have been something I need
Cause I've been chasing,
rat racing Doing anything to win
Now my grass looks like Augusta
And I got around to painting that fence
I've been calling up my mama Doing some old friend checking in
And it seems like where I'm going
Might be better than where I've been
Cause with all this going on I found the right and all this wrong
And I finally see
The good Lord knows better than me
I got a little less in the bank
But I get a little more sleep
I get a little more use Out of that old poor swing
I got a little more her Holding on to a little more me
I feel a little more free Cause I've been chasing,
rat racing
Doing anything to win
Now my grass looks like Augusta
And I got around to painting that fence I've been
calling up my mama Doing some old friend checking in
And it seems like where I'm going Might be better
than where I've been Cause with all this going on I
found the right and all this wrong And I finally see
The good Lord knows better than me
Knows better than me
If the world does end
I'll take the last day slow
And if he does come back
I know where I'll go
And if he takes his time Well,
I've learned one thing
The good Lord knows better than me Cause I've been chasing,
rat racing
Doing anything to win Now I make more time for fishing
I got my old truck running again I went home to see my mama
Been good hearing from old friends And it seems like where I'm going
Might be better than where I've been Cause with all this going on
I found the right and all the wrong And I finally see
The good Lord knows better than me Better than me
So much better than me
