Humility Songtext
von Sam Outlaw

The bartender said
"Son, you′re lookin' half-dead
You′re better off, make it a double"
But if I remember right
Last time I drank all night
I just woke up in the same trouble

So I finally prayed
"Lord, I'm all out of strength
Can you give me something I need?"
And he gave me one strong shot of humility

I've been drinkin′ too much
I′ve been actin' real tough
I′ve been makin' a fool of myself
But there′s no sin inside
That's half as bad as my pride
The booze ain′t been great for my health


So I finally prayed
"Lord, I know I have strayed
But can you make a man out of me?"
And he gave me one strong shot of humility

So now I don't fight him
I daily invite him
To give me a humble heart
And though I may falter
If I go to the altar
I won't have to go to the bar

So if you′re like me
And always tryin′ to be
In control all the time
It might get so far
But when you finally fall
You won't find salvation in wine

But have no fear
′Cause if the Lord can hear
A prideful sinner like me
Then he'll give you one strong shot
It only takes one, believe it or not
Yeah, he gave me one strong shot of humility
