[Verse 1]
I clock out at five
Walk through that screen door
Boots by the mat
Kids on the linoleum floor
My wife in the kitchen
With flour on her hands
Lord, I count my blessings
And I know where I stand
[Pre-Chorus]
A paycheck in my pocket
A ring on my hand
Little feet a-runnin'
Cross this old land
I ain't rich, but I am
Where I wanna be
When I look around
It's plain to see
[Chorus]
I got a job
I got a wife
I got my babies
And a good whole life
Best of all
He's by my side
God behind my back
Every mile, every night
God behind my back
Ain't nothing better than that
[Verse 2]
Sunday morning sunlight
Falling through the glass
Little hands folded
While the offering pass
My boy learns the words
My girl sings them loud
I bow my head
And I thank Him out loud
[Pre-Chorus]
Some folks chase gold
Some folks chase fame
Me, I found heaven
In an ordinary name
With a table full of laughter
And a porch full of grace
I know I've been held
By a holy place
[Chorus]
I got a job
I got a wife
I got my babies
And a good whole life
Best of all
He's by my side
God behind my back
Every mile, every night
God behind my back
Ain't nothing better than that
[Bridge]
If the storms come rolling
If the road gets long
I'll keep on standing
'Cause the Lord makes me strong
With this little house
And these prayers I know
I'm already living
On a heaven road
[Chorus]
I got a job
I got a wife
I got my babies
And a good whole life
Best of all
He's by my side
God behind my back
Every mile, every night
God behind my back
Ain't nothing better than that
