Craig Lyrics - Walker Hayes

I met Craig at a church called Redeeming Grace 

Like he understood my "I don't want to be here" face 

I felt out of place and I smelled like beer 

But he just shook my hand, said "I'm glad you're here" 

He said "we'll all be judged" 

But he was never judgemental 

And even though my songs don't belong in no hymnal, 

he'd quote me my lyrics, slap me on the back, 

said "Man you've got a gift! How you write like that?"

I know, he sounds cool right? 

Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? 

I still ain't figured out church yet 

But Craig, I get 

Nah he can't walk on water, turn the Napa Valley red 

But he just might be tight with a man that did 

Yeah he's not the light of the world, 

but I wish that mine was bright as his 

Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is 

You lose a record deal, all the perks fade fast 

Dealership said, "We're going to need to get that mini-van back" 

So we were down on one car 

And broke as I felt, 

my wife and six kids with only five seat belts 

I needed help but couldn't admit, I was strong 

Said, "Craig, it's all good" 

But he knew it all wasn't 

A "Hey man I'm praying for you" would've been sufficient but nah 

He took roadside assistance to a 

whole other level, to sacrificial heights

Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night 

In two cars, with his wife Barb watching from the other 

Said "What in the world are y'all doing here, brother?" 

He just laughed inside that old Chrysler Town and Country van 

With the keys, and a title, and a pen in his hand 

Said "Man, all you got to do is sign and it's yours" 

I said "No, no way" 

But he wouldn't take "No" for an answer 

Said "Please do, 

somebody did this for me once, just let me do this for you" 

We argued about it for a little while 

Then I teared up, and Craig smiled 

I know, he sounds cool right? 

Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right? 

Nah he can't walk on water, turn the Napa Valley red 

But he just might be tight with a man that did 

Yeah he's not the light of the world, 

but I wish that mine was bright as his 

Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is 

My pride was way too ashamed to be adequately grateful at the moment 

But I signed the dotted line, and I drove the kids home 

And when the cop pulled up beside us 

at the light, they didn't have to duck 

Because thanks to Craig 

They were all buckled up
