Lyrics
If God was that kind of guy,
You could go grab a beer.
Go fishin on Friday.
Would you tell him your fears?
When you fight with your wife,
Would he lend you his ear?
Drove his truck by your house
Said let’s go hunt some deer.
What if God was that kind of guy?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy?
Do you think he’d be here?
Well he told us to be
Who we’re gonna be,
and to tell you bout him.
It’s that simple you see.
What if he was that guy,
that you’d like to be?
What if God was that kinda guy?
That’s who he is to me.
He’d be one of the guys
sitting up in a tree.
Scoping down on at that buck,
Or singing karaoke.
He’d go bowling with you.
Watch you make a turkey.
When you Mom passed away,
You have him do the eulogy.
What if God was that kind of guy?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy
Do you think he’d be here?
What if he was that guy,
that you look up to?
What if God was that kind of guy that you listen to?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy?
Do you think he’d be here,
Sitting here in this pew
right next to you?
Well, he’s not here today,
so he just sent me.
What if God was that kind if guy?
Is that who’d you like to see?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind if guy?
Well, He’s right here
living inside if me.
You could go grab a beer.
Go fishin on Friday.
Would you tell him your fears?
When you fight with your wife,
Would he lend you his ear?
Drove his truck by your house
Said let’s go hunt some deer.
What if God was that kind of guy?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy?
Do you think he’d be here?
Well he told us to be
Who we’re gonna be,
and to tell you bout him.
It’s that simple you see.
What if he was that guy,
that you’d like to be?
What if God was that kinda guy?
That’s who he is to me.
He’d be one of the guys
sitting up in a tree.
Scoping down on at that buck,
Or singing karaoke.
He’d go bowling with you.
Watch you make a turkey.
When you Mom passed away,
You have him do the eulogy.
What if God was that kind of guy?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy
Do you think he’d be here?
What if he was that guy,
that you look up to?
What if God was that kind of guy that you listen to?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind of guy?
Do you think he’d be here,
Sitting here in this pew

Well, he’s not here today,

What if God was that kind if guy?
Is that who’d you like to see?
Would you hang out with him?
Would you tell him your fears?
What if God was that kind if guy?
Well, He’s right here
living inside if me.
