I met her on a Sunday third day of May
Tried not to show her I was swept away
By her giddy girlish laughter & long raven hair
And the way that she barely seemed to care
And I love and admire her still to this day, so I have to say
If I could
God done good God done good
God done good God done good
He made a promise said he would
And God done good
We tried to have a baby we tried and we tried
We couldn't make it happen we cried and we cried
Searched for an answer we prayed and we prayed
Then one day it happened from far, far away
A baby boy he came and changed our lives and we cried and we cried
Cause we understood
God done good God done good
God done good God done good
He made a promise said he would
And God done good
Got no money got no fame
Got no title before my name
Got food and water brick and wood
Got love and laughter God done, God done good
We watch our baby sleepin' peaceful and calm
We look at those eyelashes so graceful and long
He will be a prize for some lucky girl
And a gift of laughter to a cold, lonely world
And we wink at the sky and we kneel and we cry and we cry
And it's understood
God done good God done good
God done good God done good
He made a promise said he would
And God done good
