The Will by Andrew Crawford Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Finally got the call from the lawyer, said, "I'm sorry, but your mom has passed away"
"It took a while for us to find you, they said you left about ten years ago this May"
"I know you said that you would always hate her, what she left might change the way you feel"
"Drop by my office Monday morning, she left you in her will"
[Verse 2]
He knew she always had a lot money, driving back, he could see those dollar signs
Raising hell is no way to make a living, what she left just might change his way of life
But when the lawyer only handed him a Bible, he was mad enough, he could almost kill
He knew it was his mama's prized possеssion and all she left in her will
[Verse 3]
Hе finally picked up that old Bible, sat on the foot of his bed
He opened it somewhere past the middle and began to read the words in red
Last year, I gave my whole heart to Jesus and I still read my mom's Bible every day
Someday soon I'll get to see her and she'll see that I finally changed my ways
Now I know things happen for a reason and it takes time for a broken man to heal
And I'm thankful mama left me her Bible, thank God she left me in her will
