George Strait - The Nerve Lyrics
I'm glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day.
I could just as easily have let you get away.
In that crowded airport far from my hometown,
If I had lost my courage then you wouldn't be around;
I'm glad I had the nerve.
And I'm glad he had the nerve to get down on his knees
And say "I bought this ring for you, won't you wear it please"
My daddy sure touched something in my momma's heart somehow
If he hadn't, I sure wouldn't be here with you now;
I'm glad he had the nerve
[Chorus:]
Or I never would have lived like this
Or learned like this, or laughed like this, or loved like this.
My great granddaddy's great-grandpa, in 1833.
He met an Indian maiden, in the Smoky Mountain mist
If they hadn't crossed that line I would not exist;
I'm glad they had the nerve.
I'm glad He had the nerve, while staring into space
To give this universe a time and a place.
With one tiny atom, or an Adam and an Eve
However you look at it, whatever you believe;
I'm glad He had the nerve
[Chorus]
Thank God, he had the nerve;
And I'm glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day.

George Strait The Nerve Comments
I'm glad my great great great grandmother had the nerve to send her only living son off to find his way away with only a couple of days supply of food away from the trail of tears.
I'm glad my grandfather had the nerve to be a code talker. Changing our native name in the process to be proudly American for the hope of a better life for his descendants. Otherwise I wouldn't be here now teaching my nephews where they came from. This song for me hits close to my heart in so many ways.
I absolutely love this song!
