amy jack - if not for friends lyrics
someone blew a tire
sparks flew in the grass
the oklahoma wind
and the flames grew fast
i smelled the breath of h+ll
death was all that i could taste
there were kids and horses screaming
but god still heard me pray
just when i thought there was no way
we’d make it out alive
i saw kinfolk and pick+up trucks
rollin’ up the drive
neighbors and strangers
to put their lives in danger
lord i hate to think what might have been
if not for friends
it burned 2,000 acres
trying to get us
but those oklahoma hearts
built a wall of love
fire trucks and first responders
came from miles around
faith in god and okies
shut that fire down
just when i thought there was no way
we’d make it out alive
i saw kinfolk and pick+up trucks
rollin’ up the drive
some of them were neighbors
most of them were strangers
who thought enough of someone else
to put their lives in danger
lord i hate to think what might have been
if not for friends
those unsung heroes
will never know what all they saved
the livestock and family
and this home where i was raised
i’ll be forever grateful
i’d repay them if i could
the grass will grow back
and people are still good
