Raising Humans - Easton Corbin

He wouldn’t have been my first choice

If I’d had one when I met him

He looked like he’d be moody

The kind that let little things upset him

But fate don’t ask opinions

It just gives you what you need

So we headed home in that ol' truck

And I let him ride right next to me

It didn’t take me very long

You see I had my work cut-out

He’d just had his heart broken

So we spent a lot of time there on that couch

He talked to me for hours

And oh the stories I could tell

But I guess sometimes just to listen

Is all a friend can do to help

Raising humans ain’t as easy as it looks

Raising humans don’t come with instruction books

You just love them and you trust 'em

And sometimes let 'em think they know it all

I think raising humans is the reason God made all us dogs

I knew he was gonna take it hard

When he had to let me go

But I was tired and it was time

I tried my best to let him know

And when the doctor said «You ready?»

For the first time in years I saw him pray

I just closed my eyes and drifted off

I knew he was gonna be okay

Raising humans ain’t as easy as it looks

Raising humans don’t come with instruction books

You just love them and you trust 'em

And sometimes let 'em think they know it all

I think raising humans is the reason God made all us dogs

I think raising humans is the reason God made all us dogs
