"Me & Becky"

My sister Becky loves this song. She says the song reminds her of her & I. Funny thing is tomorrow I will be going to see a house. I have been pre-approved for a loan and have started looking at houses. My sister is also now ready to leave her group home and live on her own. Hopefully I can get a multi-family and rent the other apartment to her. She will be independent but will have her big sis next to her.

Me & Becky
By Chris Rice
Becky has a house on abundant life Boulevard
A good name, a good family, and butterflies in her yard
Becky loves Jesus and really wants to make Him proud
She tears up in church and she sings her harmonies loud
She's got a Bible by the bed
A prayer journal, and a fish on her car
She makes sure to bow her head
And give thanks in every restaurant
But is that enough?

C'mon Becky, let's go for a ride
If I'm driving too fast then I apologize
But there's a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I'm crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c'mon Becky, let's go for a ride

I'm rolling up to Becky's house on my Sunday drive
I have to laugh to myself 'cause it looks exactly like mine
I smile and wave at all the happy people strolling by
We've got the same walk, same talk
And the same sparkle in our eyes
'Cause we're thankful for the blessings
But maybe we could lay 'em aside
I get a feeling we might be
Missin' the time of our lives
So hop in and hold on tight

C'mon Becky, let's go for a ride
If I'm driving too fast then I apologize
But there's a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I'm crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c'mon Becky, c'mon Becky

We're so thankful for the blessings
But maybe we could lay 'em aside
I get a feeling we might be
Headed for the time of our lives
So hop in and hold on tight
C'mon Becky, let's go for a ride
If I'm driving too fast then I apologize
But there's a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I'm crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c'mon Becky, let's go for a ride

Let's go, Let's go, Let's go, Let's go, Let's go
