when god sets his sights on you - eli conley lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
mary ann waits tables nightly
down at joe’s on highway two
daughter jean started acting strangely
she cut her hair, she’s wearing old men’s boots
then at home they were getting dinner ready
jean said she had something to tell
“i’ve started seeing someone pretty steady”
“mom,” she said, “her name’s danielle”

[chorus]
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
when god sets his sights on you?

[verse 2]
mary ann stared at her daughter
said, “i taught you better, i am sure”
let’s get on our knees and pray out these demons
i can’t see my daughter anymore
jean grabbed her coat and she set out running
down to the river and the creaky bridge
said her own prayer, sent it up to heaven
opened up her mouth, and she did sing

[chorus]
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
when god sets his sights on you?
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
when god sets his sights on you?
[post*chorus]
she’s got love to give, she’s got a life to live

[verse 3]
jean spent all night staring at that river
a*splashing and a*racing off so far
then she grabbed her truck, her favorite kitten
her toothbrush, a couple of shirts and her mom’s guitar
she turned the key, flipped on the headlights
they blazed up against the autumn corn
mary ann’s face fl!ckered in the doorway
jean just drove off for californ’

[outro]
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
if you believe in the word of god, what are you gonna do
when god
when god
when god
when god sets his sights on you
