Keith Urban - Raise 'Em Up ft. Eric Church

Raise ‘em up
I’m talkin’ ‘bout a lighter on a Saturday night
The band plays a song you like and you sing along

Raise ‘em up
I’m talkin’ ‘bout Daddy’s old pickup truck
Shotgun seat, there’s the one you love and you’re kissin’ on

Get those white sails sailing down in Mexico
It’s just a whiskey glass if you ain’t makin’ a toast
Lift your tear-filled eyes up to the sky
A comin’ home, you’ve been gone too long
Tonight we’re gonna
Raise ‘em up

(Eric Church)
Raise ‘em up
You got a voice, you got a choice
Go make some noise
Don’t ever let ‘em tell you who you are
Raise ‘em up
Fist black and blue, fight for the truth
It’s what you do
Hand on your heart for the stripes and stars

Black umbrellas in the pourin’ rain
A “Sunday Morning Coming Down,” “Amazing Grace”
Lift those tear-filled eyes up to the sky
As the flag flies, say goodbye
Tonight we’re gonna
Raise ‘em up

So, you meet someone
The only one
You take her by the hand
Make a stand
Buy some land
Make some love
And them babies come

Raise ‘em up
Raise ‘em up
Raise ‘em up trophy high
Raise ‘em up to the sky
Raise ‘em up, show everybody that newborn smile
Raise ‘em up tall and strong
Raise ‘em up right from wrong
Raise ‘em up so damn high they can hear God singing along
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
