Pick it up (Girl) Original - Carl Caballes

This is a song I wrote a few weeks ago that I sang at a show at the Wesley Foundation here at VSU.

I wrote it when I looked out my dorm window at a girl who was being sweet talked by a guy.

Messed up a few times! ("Looking at your sips?") But hey, that's what practice is for!

Lyrics!
Pick it up girl
Pick up your face
Pick it on up and walk outta this place
You're better than that girl
Just go on your way
Find a better man that'll save your day

October 13th it's a thursday night
All dressed up, "We gone do it right!"
Got your makeup on, bottle in hand
Had one too many, it's getting hard to stand
There's a guy at the bar
Staring from a far
Looking at your hips saying
"Girl you're my star"

This world is filled with broken people
All victims of our sinful nature
We tell ourselves it's just one night, one time
When will we realize that its worth the fight?

Hush lil baby, don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Hush lil darlin don't say a word
Daddy's gonna save his little mockingbird


Girl, you were meant for so much more
Than high heels and skirts too short
When you're crying lasts all night
and on and on and on
Look up to the skies and sing,

"Pick me up Lord
Show me your Grace
Lift up the veil and show me Your face
I'm better than this Lord
Let my old ways fade
Pick me on up for a brand new day"
