Josh Turner - I Was There lyrics

I was there that night in Bethlehem And when Neil and the boys came to the moon in that tin can At Gettysburg, Omaha Beach, in Vietnam I heard every soldier's cry and every mama's prayer I was there I was there when you took your first breath And when you let that stolen lucky strike And locked a choke to d**h When you were waist deep in Carter's Creek And Preacher John dunked you down in the water And raised you up for air I was there I'm always around, I was then and I am now And I'll be here when tomorrow comes When a road comes to an end I'm where you start again I'm never farther than a word away You've always got a friend When your grandma pa**ed, I was in that house And when your grandpa ran down the streets of gold To show her around I was there I'm always around, I was then and I am now And I'll be here when tomorrow comes When a road comes to an end I'm where you start again I'm never farther than a word away You've always got a friend I was there last night on Highway Nine When you answered the phone and ran right through that stop sign I was in the cab of that bigger rig and that trucker's ear Made him swerve to the right and miss you by a hair I was there If you're feeling alone, look up I'm the one who answers prayers And I'm always there
