What's So Lyrics - John Paul White

Hole in the road 

Sun on your back 

Shoulder the load 

Your ancestors passed 

Wear on your sleeve 

The virtues you lack 

But don't get above your raising 

Sell your damn soul 

Or get right with the man 

Keep treading water as long as you can 

But whatever you do 

You must understand 

That you don't get above your raising 

No you don't get above your raising 

Cuz it's one for the somber 

And two for the stone 

And three for the ready to get low low low low 

Four for the fortunate few that don't know 

The difference between what should be 

And what's so 

Reach for the sky 

Kneel down and pray 

Get in the dirt and 

Get out of the way 

But don't you forget 

'til you climb in that grave 

That you don't get above your raising 

One for the somber 

Two for the stone 

Three for the ready to get low low low low 

Four for the fortunate few that don't know 

The difference between what should be 

And what's so 

One for the somber 

Two for the stone 

Three for the ready to get low low low low 

Four for the fortunate 

Few that don't know 

The difference between what should be 

And what's so
