I was tooling down the highway when 95 minutes from home
Number 3 started billowing puke, now I'm not alone
In this roadside motel room with all five kids in tow
Lord have mercy on this mama, got nowhere else to go
Chorus:
It's another country crisis on this dusty two-lane road
When the engine starts a-smokin' and the kids need somewhere to go
Just a mama and her babies in a town we've never known
Prayin' for a miracle to get us safely home
The mechanic says it's busted, gonna cost more than I got
Kids are hungry, getting cranky in this parking lot so hot
Called my sister back in Dallas, but she can't come rescue me
So we're camping in room 12 by the highway 'neath the trees
Chorus:
It's another country crisis on this dusty two-lane road
When the engine starts a-smokin' and the kids need somewhere to go
Just a mama and her babies in a town we've never known
Prayin' for a miracle to get us safely home
Bridge:
Sometimes life throws you a curveball when you're just trying to get by
But these five little angels are the reason that I try
We'll make it through this somehow, like we always seem to do
'Cause family sticks together when the skies ain't looking blue
Final Chorus:
It's another country blessing on this dusty two-lane road
When strangers become angels and their kindness starts to show
Just a mama and her babies finding love we've never known
Thank the Lord for small-town mercy that's gonna get us home
