Karaoké Wait in the Truck HARDY & Lainey Wilson

I got turned around in some little town

I'd never been to before

Workin' my way through a middle of June midnight thunderstorm

There was somethin' in the headlights that stopped me on a dime

Well she was scared to death so I said climb in and in she climbed

Oh

Yeah

Well she was bruised and broke from head to toe with a tear in her blood-stained shirt

She didn't tell the whole truth but she didn't have to

I knew what had happened to her

I didn't load her down

I didn't load her down with questions with questions

That girl had been through enough

That girl had been through enough

I just threw it in drive

Looked in those eyes and asked her where he was

I don't know if he's an angel 'cos angels don't do what he did

He was hellbent to find the man behind all the whiskey scars I hid

I never thought my day of justice would come from a judge under his seat

But I knew right then

I'd never get hit again when he said to me

Wait in the truck

Wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck

Well I knocked and knocked and no one came

So I kicked in his double-wide door

I let the hammer drop before he got to that twelve he was reachin' for

I didn't try to hide my pistol

I didn't try to hide my pistol

I didn't even try to run

I didn't even try to run

I just sat on the porch

Smokin' one of his cigarettes and waited for the cops to come

I don't know if he's an angel 'cos angels don't do what he did

He was hellbent to find the man behind all the whiskey scars I hid

I never thought my day of justice would come from a judge under his seat

But I knew right then

I'd never get hit again when he said to me

Wait in the truck

Wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck

Woah

Hey

Ho ho

Have mercy on me Lord

Have mercy on me

On me

Have mercy on me, Lord

Oh

Oh oh

It's been sixty months and she still comes to see me from time to time

It was worth the price to see a brighter side of the girl I picked up that night

And might be here forever

It ain't paradise that's true

But it's a whole hell of a lot better than the place I sent him to

Yeah

Have mercy have mercy

Have mercy on me

Wait in the truck

Have mercy on me, Lord

Just wait in the truck

Have mercy have mercy

Have mercy on me

Wait in the truck

Lord have mercy

Just wait in the truck

Have mercy have mercy

Have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me

Lord have mercy

Have mercy on me

Have mercy have mercy

Have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me

Please have mercy

Have mercy have mercy

Have mercy on me

Wait in the truck

Have mercy on me

Lord have mercy

Just wait in the truck

Have mercy have mercy

Ho oh oh oh oh

Have mercy on me

Wait in the truck

Please have mercy

Please have mercy

Just wait in the truck
