From the recording Cut Me loose
Lyrics
[Intro]
[fingerpicked acoustic guitar, harmonica melody]
[Verse 1]
When I look back over my life
I see my lows and my highs
I'm holding you here in my arms
Oh, I realize
I must've done something right [harmonica fill]
[Verse 2]
And when that little hand reach out to mine
Daddy's a story tonight
And I think about all those nursery rhymes
Oh, I realize [harmonica fill]
I must've done something right
[Chorus]
Must've done something good
To have you here this way
And I need to pray
Thank you Lord for the little things
Thank you Lord for your winter and your spring
Thank you Lord for an answered prayer
Oh, and thank you Lord
For being the man at the top of my stairs
Whoa, oh, thank you Lord
For being the man at the top of my stairs
[Instrumental Bridge]
[harmonica solo over fingerpicked acoustic guitar]
[Verse 3]
And when you look at me like it's the first time
In that early morning light
And I see all our little gray lines
Oh, I realize
I must've done something right
[Chorus]
Must've done something good
To have you here this way
And I need to pray
Thank you Lord for the little things
Thank you Lord for your winter and your spring
Thank you Lord for an answered prayer
Oh, and thank you Lord
For being the man at the top of my stairs
Whoa, oh, thank you Lord
For being the man at the top of my stairs
[Outro]
[harmonica melody fades with acoustic guitar strum]
