The Dealer

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Morgan Wallen] I got a million questions, like, "Why the hell can't Heaven be on Earth?" "Why do good folks have to hurt?" "Why's life a lesson?" "Why's every single blessing have a curse?" "Why's love take so much work?" [Pre-Chorus: Morgan Wallen] And why does mom and daddy's hair have to turn gray I guess everyone's got reasons why their shoulders carry weight [Chorus: Morgan Wallen] There's been a few days I 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'll be damned I drew an ace Guess that's lifе and that's why I remind myself to spend morе time Talkin' to the Dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt [Verse 2: ERNEST] It sure feels like life would be better If hearts like mine, they never wound up broke It ain't how most stories go I won't lie, I'm tired of walkin' through this fire and brimstone world we all call home [Pre-Chorus: ERNEST] But I'm, I'm still sittin' at the table makin' bets Bettin' that some better times are comin' up ahead, yeah [Chorus: ERNEST] There's been a few days I 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'll be damned I drew an ace I guess that's life and that's why I remind myself to spend more time Talkin' to the Dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt The hands I'm dealt [Bridge: Morgan Wallen] And I used to think you're supposed to pray 'Cause it was somethin' that God needs But, now I see it's less for him and really more for me [Chorus: Morgan Wallen, ERNEST] There's been a few days I 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'll be damned I drew an ace I guess that's life and that's why I remind myself to spend more time Talkin' to the Dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt [Tag] The hands I'm dealt
