Rodney Atkins - Simple Things

@ 活在當下 制作

We got the biggest dog you ever saw

Sprawled on the porch, coolin' off

Down at our place

His name is Ace

We got the hummingbirds comin' in

Hittin' those sugar water feeders and buzzin' off again

Floatin' in the wind

Then the sunset melts into a line of pines

Life is slow out here but it just suits me fine

It's the simple things that strum my strings

Baby cries, and momma sings him back to sleep

Oh it sounds so sweet

It's puttin' in a hard day's work

Comin' home and puttin' on a clean t-shirt

It's friends and family gathering

A neck to hug, a joke to tell and a dish to bring

It's the simple things, yeah

It's takin' my boy to the river on Sunday

Huntin' tadpoles and Indian money

And I just laugh while his flipflops splash

Then we spray on the Off! 'cause we don't wan't chiggers

Baitin' our hooks with chicken livers

Goin' yellow catfishin'

A little whisker lick grippin'

I love it when he says 'Daddy give me five'

And watchin' him grunt and grin as he's reelin' in

That flathead on his line

It's the simple things that strum my strings

Baby cries, and momma sings him back to sleep

Oh it sounds so sweet

It's puttin' in a hard day's work

Comin' home and puttin' on a clean t-shirt

It's friends and family gathering

A neck to hug, a joke to tell and a dish to bring

Yeah it's the simple things

It's the simple things

It's feelin' thankful

Just lookin' at the stars

It's findin' piece of mind

In your own backyard

Yeah it's the simple things that strum my strings

Like big oak trees and tire swings and lemonade

Ice cold and homemade

It's puttin' in a hard day's work

Comin' home and puttin' on a clean t-shirt

It's friends and family gathering

A neck to hug, a joke to tell and a dish to bring

It's the simple things

It's the simple things

That's it
