Figure That One Out Lyrics by Joe Nichols
Joe Nichols Lyrics
A multi-millionaire was caught crying in a Baptist church
He hadn’t been there since Easter morning, but his heart really hurts.
There’s a dirt poor migrant farmer, slaving 12 hour days
Goes to sleep every night with a smile on his face.
Figure that one out.
There is a 5 year old marriage trapped on trembling rocks.
He runs around, she’s too scared to walk.
Two doors down there’s a love abound, they’re still holding hands.
Fifty years comes Saturday, John’s been Betty’s man.
Figure that one out.
Plans, he says, to puzzles and reasons we’ll never know
Signs we try to read um, prayers we need um
And faith is a freedom that’s gonna keep up strong.
A prima-donna football star is fighting loneliness
A 90 year old widow, giving thanks cause she’s so blessed
And there’s a woman who’d give anything to have her own baby
And a woman who’s ready to give one up cause she just isn’t ready
Figure that one out.
Oh, plans, he says, to puzzles and reasons we’ll never know
Signs we try to read um, prayers we need um
And faith is a freedom that’s gonna keep up strong.
I wish somehow there was a way to know it all
A design so big well I guess we’re just too small
Maybe it comes down to what’s inside our hearts
We can guess and guess our lifetimes
But it takes more than we are to figure that one out.
Figure that one out
Figure that one out
Figure that one out
[Thanks to Diane Z for lyrics]
