RODNEY ATKINS lyrics : "Simple Things"

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 want 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
