Brooks & Dunn - God Must Be Busy Lyrics

That anchor man
says they're fightin' again
somewhere in the middle east.
World prayers for peace.

There's a single mom.
Just got laid off,
went and lost her job to some foreign hands
in some far away land.

Last night in Oklahoma
some twister took thirteen.
And they're prayin' that they find the missing three.
God must be busy

Chorus:
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 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
headed 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 prayin' that God keeps that girl from danger.
God must be busy.

(Chorus)

That 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 soakin' wet,
half scared to death
on the side of some road.
Them prayers work ya know.
And the Bloods and Crips 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.

(Chorus)

That anchor man
says the fightin's worse,
cities burn in the middle east.
World prays for peace.
