You're the water in my whiskey

The wildflower in my dirt

You're the "boy, get outta bed

Put on your boots, let's go to church"

You're the red light on my too fast

The whisper to my yell

You're the "show me how to love

When I can't even love myself".

Girl, I know

I'd be pushing up some daisies

Ridin' shotgun with my crazy

And I know

That the good lord up above me

Knew that you'd make something of me

'cause every day you do

'cause I can't even stand up straight

Without leaning on you.

I had everything to gain

And you had everything to lose

Yeah, I give you every reason

Not to love me like you do

But I thank god you do.

Yeah, I know

I'd be pushing up some daisies

Ridin' shotgun with my crazy

And I know

That the good lord up above me

Knew that you'd make something of me

'cause every day you do

'cause I can't even stand up straight

Without leaning on you.

I'd be face down in the rubble

I'd be six-foot deep in trouble

I'd be wasting my time praying I'd find you, oh...

Girl, I know

I'd be pushing up some daisies

Ridin' shotgun with my crazy

And I know

That the good lord up above me

Knew that you'd make something of me

'cause every day you do

I can't even stand up straight

Without leaning on you

On you.
