wait in the truck (feat. Lainey Wilson)

I got turned around in some little town
 I'd never been to before
 Working my way through a middle-of-June
 Midnight thunderstorm
 There was something in the headlights
 It stopped me on a dime
 Well, she was scared to death, so I said
 "Climb in," and then 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 with questions
 That girl had been through enough
 I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes
 And I asked her where he was
 I don't know if he's an angel
 'Cause 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 a seat
 But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
 When he said to me
 "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 12 he was reaching for
 I didn't try to hide my pistol
 I didn't even try to run
 I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes
 And waited for the cops to come
 I don't know if he's an angel
 'Cause 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 a seat
 But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
 When he said to me
 "Wait in the truck
 Just wait in the truck"
 Whoa (whoa)
 Have mercy on me, Lord
 Have mercy on me
 Have mercy on me (hey), Lord
 It's been 60 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 I might be here forever
 It ain't paradise, that's true
 But it's 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)
 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) have mercy on me, Lord
 Have mercy on me
 (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) have mercy on me, Lord
 Have mercy on me
 (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck
 Just wait in the truck
 (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck
 Just wait in the truck (please have me mercy)
