Help Pour Out the Rain (Lacey’s Song)

HELP POUR OUT THE RAIN (BUDDY JEWELL)

THE MOMENT WAS CUSTOM-MADE TO ORDER:
I WAS RIDIN' WITH MY DAUGHTER ON OUR WAY BACK FROM MONROE.
AN' LIKE CHILDREN DO, SHE STARTED PLAYIN' TWENTY QUESTIONS,
BUT I NEVER WOULD'VE GUESSED ONE COULD TOUCH ME TO MY SOUL.

CHORUS
SHE SAID: DADDY, WHEN WE GET TO HEAVEN, CAN I TASTE THE MILKY WAY
ARE WE GOIN' THERE TO VISIT, OR ARE WE GOIN' THERE TO STAY
AM I GONNA SEE MY GRANDPA CAN I HAVE A PAIR OF WINGS
AN' DO YOU THINK THAT GOD COULD USE ANOTHER ANGEL,
TO HELP POUR OUT THE RAIN

WELL, I WON'T LIE I PULLED THAT CAR RIGHT OVER,
I SAT THERE ON THE SHOULDER TRYIN' TO DRY MY MISTY EYES.
AN' I WHISPERED "LORD, I WANNA THANK YOU FOR MY CHILDREN.
CAUSE YOUR INNOCENCE THAT FILLS THEM OFTEN TAKES ME BY SURPRISE

REPEAT CHORUS
AM I GONNA SEE MY GRANDPA CAN I HAVE A PAIR OF WINGS

BRIDGE
WELL, I THOUGHT ABOUT IT LATER ON,
AN' A SMILE CAME TO MY FACE.
AN' WHEN I TUCKED HER IN TO BED,
I GOT DOWN ON MY KNEES AN' PRAYED.

LORD, WHEN I GET TO HEAVEN, CAN I TASTE THE MILKY WAY
I DON'T WANNA COME TO VISIT 'CAUSE I'M COMIN' HOME TO STAY
AN' I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MY FAMILY AND MEET JESUS FACE TO FACE.
AN' DO YOU THINK, LORD, YOU COULD USE JUST ONE MORE ANGEL,
TO HELP POUR OUT THE RAIN

TAG
MMMM, CAN I HELP POUR OUT THE RAIN
CAN I HELP POUR OUT THE RAIN
