[00:08.33] .
[00:11.71] I was 12 years old with some bolts and a wrench,
[00:14.90] a piece of plywood that
[00:16.15] Was 3/4 inch and daddy said son once your chores are one
[00:20.59] I'll give you one
[00:22.45] Of them gris old barn poles.
[00:24.95] I went out in the pasture with no cow patties,
[00:27.83] Got some post hole diggers,
[00:29.21] and I got after it. Had some sun on my back and
[00:32.65] A blister on my hand, but man I had myself a goal!
[00:35.82] .
[00:38.46] I dribbles that ball till the grass was gone
[00:40.91] and the ground was brown and Flat.
[00:43.04] Me and Daddy played horse
[00:45.42] and the cows all "mooed" and we laughed.
[00:49.07] I Was lucky and I didn't even know it growing up like that.
[00:52.86] .
[00:54.93] I learned the birds and the bee's from the cats
[00:57.24] and the dogs, & a frog Starts out as a pollywog.
[01:00.99] The best blackberry cobbler is made from scratch,
[01:03.56] And worth every one you get from the briar patch.
[01:07.49] .
[01:08.49] I found out firewood will Warm you twice,
[01:10.90] once when you cut it and once when you light it.
[01:14.16] I can't Help but smile when I look back,
[01:19.71] cause I was lucky and I didn't even know
[01:21.95] It growin' up like that.
[01:24.45] .
[01:28.88] There was an old wooden barrel hind my grandpa's house
[01:31.57] where we threw our Tatter peels and coffee grounds,
[01:34.44] say you want to catch catfish long as your Arm,
[01:37.26] son you gotta have a night crawler farm.
[01:39.75] .
[01:41.76] Well we'd sit on the dock and
[01:43.38] Share a bottle of pop and catch a few
[01:45.52] and then head on back.
[01:47.57] Me and Daddy Clean fish while the cats "meowed" and we laughed,
[01:52.67] I was lucky and I didn't Even know it growing up like that
[01:56.46] .
[01:58.46] I learned the birds and the bee's from the cats and the dogs,
[02:01.57] a frog Starts out as a pollywog.
[02:03.98] The best blackberry cobbler is made from scratch,
[02:07.21] And worth every one you get from the briar patch.
[02:11.09] .
[02:11.77] If you ever got sugar in A hot hay loft
[02:14.71] and you still can't believe y'all didn't get caught.
[02:17.65] You Close your eyes and smile when you look back,
[02:23.45] you were lucky and you didn't Know it growing up like that.
[02:27.45] .
[02:38.10] Ya learned the birds and the bee's from the cats and the dogs,
[02:41.10] and skinny Dippin beats anything ya ever saw.
[02:43.92] The best blackberry cobbler is made from
[02:46.71] Scratch, and worth every one you get from the briar patch.
[02:50.67] .
[02:51.23] Sometimes me and Her still slip off to
[02:54.17] that cozy little corner in the old hay loft,
[02:57.12] taste That honeysuckle off her lips off the beaten path.
[03:03.01] Cause I'm lucky and baby I know.
[03:05.48] I'm doin my best there to show.
[03:08.13] Naw you never really do outgrow it Growin up like that.
[03:12.60] .
[03:14.79]
[03:23.62] You like good cold beer and pickin' guitar.
[03:26.48] you really don't care about Being a star,
[03:29.34] you just do it cause you love it and love it cause you do it.
[03:35.88] Shuck cobs on the porch,
[03:38.01] till some buddies show up with some
[03:40.20] (not sure These last words)
[03:41.74] Can I get an Amen growin up like that!
