BROOKS & DUNN LYRICS - God Must Be Busy

"God Must Be Busy"



That anchorman says they're fighting again

Somewhere in the Middle East

The world prays for peace

There's a single mom, just got laid off

Went and lost her job to foreign hands

In some far away land

Last night in Oklahoma

Some twister took thirteen

And they're praying they find the missing three

God must be busy



That highway sign went from slow ahead

To traffic's dead, thought it couldn't get worse

Then that Amber alert

They say she's four, Colorado plates

Heading out of state in a Chevy van

It's hard to understand

You can see it in the faces

Of all those highway strangers

They're praying that God keeps girl from danger

God must be busy



And I know in the big picture

I'm just a speck of sand

And God's got better things to do

Than look out for one man

I know He's heard my prayers

'Cause He hears everything

He just ain't answered back or He'd bring you back to me

God must be busy



The evening news ain't much changed

Pretty much the same since I left home

Yeah, that war's still on

They found that little girl

She was soaking wet, half scared to death

On the side of some road

Them prayers work ya know



And the blood and the cripes are at it

And there's a killer drought down south

And old folks can't afford the drugs they can't live without

God must be busy



And I know in the big picture

I'm just a speck of sand

And God's got better things to do

Than look out for one man

I know He's heard my prayers

'Cause He hears everything

He just ain't answered back or He'd bring you back to me

God must be busy



That anchorman says the fighting's worse

Cities burn in the Middle East

The world prays for peace
