It was one of those days when she couldn't find
a single ray of sunshine.
There wasn't even a cloud up in the sky.
After 13 years at the factory,
they said,
sorry,
ma'am,
but we're downsizing.
That's the way life is.
Good luck with the rest of it.
She looked me in the eye and said,
this ain't the first time I've taken the fall.
But let me tell you,
girl,
what's gotten me through is keeping faith through it all.
Cause there'll be dead ends and roadblocks,
tough times and hard nights.
Seems like you're always wondering why
you're at the right place at the wrong time.
Wheels moving,
but you feel stuck,
like you're life spinning in a big mud.
When you're out there running around on a wild goose chase,
there's a reason
to keep believing God don't make mistakes.
Everybody said you gotta give it up.
You can't keep that child.

You're just a baby.

she cried and she prayed and made up her mind.
Said this beautiful life that's growing inside
needs a chance to have a hand in God's plan.
Well, everyone told her they'd never get by.
He just turned 16. Made it straight to the top of his class,
the captain of the football team.
Yeah,
there'll be dead ends and roadblocks,
tough times and hard nights.
Seems like you're always wondering why
you're at the right place at the wrong time.
Wheels moving,

When you're out there running around on a wild goose chase,

Oh,
there'll be dead ends and roadblocks,
tough times and hard nights.
Seems like you're always wondering why
you're at the right place at the wrong time.
Wheels moving, but you feel stuck,
like you're life spinning in a big mud.
When you're out there running around on a wild goose chase,
there's a reason
to keep believing,
keep believing God don't make mistakes.
