Church Parking Lot (Live)

My small town revolved around
A piece of blacktop holy ground
Sunday mornings, wednesday nights
Circled up after friday night lights

Never learned all the words to the verse on the sign outside
But we lived a lot of life between painted white lines

Where I had my first sip of whiskey
Smoked out my best friend's truck
Talking bout who we gonna be when we grow up
The same place where she first kissed me
The same place where we broke up
Thinking young love lasts forever but it never does
Looking back I learned more than I thought
Like how to love, and cuss, and to talk to god
In that church parking lot

Baptizin', flags flyin'
Fireworks on the 4th of july
Potluckin' with all the fixins
Granny made her famous fried chicken

Sang amazing grace, broke bread, and we drank the wine
We lived a lot of life between painted white lines

Where I had my first sip of whiskey
Smoked out my best friend's truck
Talking bout who we gonna be when we grow up
The same place where she first kissed me
The same place where we broke up
Thinking young love lasts forever but it never does
Looking back I learned more than I thought
Like how to love, and cuss, and to talk to god
In that church parking lot

That church parking lot
It's seen it all, it's been a blessing
From brand new babies and white dress weddings
And for the troops that didn't make it back
Black umbrellas, and black cadillacs
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
Smoked out my best friend's truck
Talking bout who we gonna be when we grow up
The same place that she first kissed me
The same place where we broke up
Thinking young love lasts forever but it never does
Looking back I learned more than I thought
Like how to love, and cuss, and to talk to god
God knows, I owe all I got to that church parking lot
That church parking lot
