That Made A Believer Lyrics

Verse: 1
Ain't It just like me to disregard, everything daddy
told me about that car
Its too much, too fast, back your lead foot off of that
gas or you're gonna get hurt
Just enough rain and just enough curve, not enough lane
to make that turn
I hit that ditch and woke up lookin at what used to be
a firebird

Chorus:
That made a believer outta me, I had to learn the hard
way
Scared to death is more convincing than to hear my old
man preaching
Free advice just don't sink in, like broken bones and
bruises
A hard head and highway 23, made a believer outta me

Verse: 2
I can still hear the old man say if you get a good
woman don't let her get away
Hold her, love her, be that shoulder, the one that she
deserves
Just enough pride and just enough nerve, just enough
time I didn't learn
She's gone, moved on, now I left with the ashes of a fire burn

Chorus:
That made a believer outta me, I had to learn the hard
way
Missing her was more convincing than to hear my old man
preaching
Free advice just don't sink in, but a broken heart will
do it
Didn't know how hard it'd be till she, made a believer
outta me

Bridge:
Never thought the way I was living was something that
could be forgiven
Till one July Sunday morning, I started feeling
something
I saw that cross and heard the story
'Bout how a carpenter died on it for me

Chorus:
That made a believer outta me, I had to learn the hard
way
Ain't nothing more convincing, than to feel that sweet
redemption
Free advice finally sank in, just like the way that I
did
When that muddy water washed me clean, and made a
believer outta me
