Make me a mop to clean up the messes That I've made in my life Lord, make me a spoon, smooth on the edges When my words wanna reach for a knife
Make me a shovel, make me whatever A handle on a cup you glue back together If breakin' a man just makes him better Then do what you gotta do
Make me the nail, you hold the hammer Drive me straight and drive me truе Lord, build me a heart with room for forgivenеss And just let me live there for a minute or two
Make me a shovel, make me whatever A handle on a cup you glue back together If breakin' a man just makes him better Then do what you gotta do
Mm
And I know I'll never be shiny and perfect But give me a bucket and I'll get to workin' Take all this pain and give me a purpose I'll be whatever you choose
Make me a mop, just use me for somethin' More than just cleanin' up my own puddle of tears Lord, make me a song in some old, dusty jukebox Just make me feel somethin' I ain't felt in years
Make me a shovel, make me whatever A handle on a cup you glue back together If breakin' a man just makes him better Then do what you gotta do
Take me, huh Break me Lord, make me
