I'm worse than a has been 'cause you say I never will be
But the failures of the past seem to laugh and mock you
But I'm bathed in the blood of the lamb
I remember the days sittin' in the pews
And I'm leavin' all the name sayers chokin'
Somebody's smilin' on me
Somebody's smilin' on me
He's the one I turn to in my darkest hour
Trying to succeed in whatever you do
Somebody's smilin' on me
On the dust that I'm kickin' up behind me
Somebody's smilin' on me
When I heard the preacher sayin', "Spread the news"
Never walked on water so I know I ain't
He's smilin' on you, He's smilin' on me
Somebody's smilin' on me
He's smilin' on you
Somebody's smilin' on me
Rockin' stages like Guns N' Roses
I been flowin' since Madonna was strikin' poses
He's smilin' on you and smilin' on me
'Cause boundaries are made to be broken
So fresh in the contest
If you want peace raise your hand
I can't quit now 'cause there's too much buzz
Somebody's smilin' on me
I was feelin' the blues 'til I had a chance to choose
Somebody's smilin' on me
Count your blessings, can't you see?
I thank the Lord for everything when I pray at night
Now I feel the love to the soles of my shoes
Count your blessings, can't you see?
I'm just tryin' to excel so you feel me
Count your blessings, can't you see?
Somebody's smilin' on me
I might swim in the whiskey
Somebody's smilin' on me
And if you see her first say, "Hi" to my Mama
Count your blessings, can't you see?
Somebody's smilin' on me
It's difficult findin' words to define me
Somebody's smilin' on me
The hick hop cowboy from the D A double L A S
And I'm gettin' my chance because
And when Heaven comes, it won't be no drama
Try to walk in a path of the guiding light
Try to be a good man, never called a saint
'Cause I can feel His strength, I can feel His power
