George Strait - The Nerve lyrics
rate meI'm glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day<br>I could just have easily have let you get away<br>In that crowded airport, far from my hometown<br>If I had lost my courage then, you wouldn't be around<br>I'm glad I had the nerve.<br><br>And I'm glad he had the nerve to get down on his knees<br>And say I bought this ring for you, won't you wear it please? <br>My daddy sure touched somethin' in my momma's heart somehow<br>If he hadn't, I sure wouldn't be here with you now<br>I'm glad he had the nerve.<br><br>Or I never would've lived like this<br>Or learned like this<br>Or laughed like this<br>Or loved like this<br><br>I'm glad he had the nerve to sail across the sea<br>My great grand-daddy's great grandpa in 1833<br>He met an indian maiden in the smoky mountain mist<br>If they hadn't crossed that line, I would not exist<br>I'm glad they had the nerve.<br><br>And I'm glad he had the nerve, while staring into space<br>To give this universe a time and a place<br>With one tiny atom or an adam and an eve<br>However you look at it, whatever you believe<br>I'm glad he had the nerve.<br><br>Or we never would've live like this<br>Or learned like this<br>Or laughed like this<br>Or loved like this<br>Thank God he had the nerve.<br><br>And I'm glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day
