Doubter's Prayer
c1996 by Michael JerlingFrom the album In Another Life
When I pick a ripe tomato Off the vine When I think I've got a nibble On my line When I sip an ice cold beer Some hot day in June That's when I think of you When I hammer in a nail Or cut a two by four When I see that John Wayne movie On the Late, Late Show When I watch the old home team Manage to lose That's when I think of you We all ride the orphan train Looking for home Song of the family In our blood and in our bones When I hurt the ones I love By losing my cool If I have one too many And act the fool When I do the things I swore That I'd never do That's when I think of you We all ride the orphan train Looking for home Song of the family In our blood and in our bones When I finally get it right And need a pat on the back When I think about the son That I never had When I send my doubter's prayer Into the blue That's when I think of you
