Walker Hayes - Lela's Stars lyrics

[Verse 1: Walker Hayes] It's 3:42 a.m., eyes bloodshot Yawning in my Honda in a Costco parking lot Waiting on the door to unlock so I can clock in early And stock the cooler 'til I swear I need back surgery Wondering what the hell I'm doing with my life Wishing I was still in bed with my wife Scribbling lyrics on the side of a Styrofoam cup Do my kids need their dad to grow up Or keep chasing the dream It ain't making no sense, no dollars Am I a failure, or a father Father, help, look at the felt on my effed up ceiling Had to bum thumbtacks from my nine and a half year old daughter Lela Just to keep it from coming down Kinda like my tears when I count [Chorus: Walker Hayes] Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my, it's just the roof of my car [Verse 2: Walker Hayes] Man, I wish this coffee had a little Maker's in it Eleven bucks an hour, sh**, that's less than twenty cents a minute But, hey, it's a gig, that's food in the refrigerator It's time to get to work, but, y'all, when I get off later I'm gonna pick up this pen, where I'm leaving off now And get back to this song and show my children how to never give up On something you love, something you want Even when your check engine light is on I know the future don't look bright But, it looks like it's all going to be alright And alive [Chorus: Walker Hayes] Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my, it's just the roof of my car [Bridge: Walker Hayes] Pink and purple, green and blue, poor man's decorations All I saw was a bunch of thumbtacks, she saw constellations It's gonna be tough to get rid of this ride when the world gets my gift Cause I don't think they make new cars that come with [Chorus: Walker Hayes] Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car Lela's stars The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my, it's just the roof of my car It's just the roof of my car
