Tall Grass

(album: Country Boy's Paradise - 2011)

We were walking through the tall grass
Heading down to the swimming hole
And these beers ain't gonna last
You know we're always needing more
Just looking for a good time
Laid back and living slow
Everybody's feeling fine, watching that sun get low

I watched the sun fade out in that big red sky
I'm just a creek bank chilling it's the time of my life
Navigating through the tall grass swimming and fishing
With the cane poles bobbers and a bucket of crickets
Laid up on that gator slide sipping that wine
And catching all the white perches hitting the line
I got to get a mess for later on in the night
Cuz fish and grits is the shit when it's cooked just right
I got Mr. Smith's daughter hanging onto my arm
We just some country boys and girls getting down on the farm
And the bright summer sun couldn't get much hotter
So the shirts come off and we jump in the water
I love going to a place that everybody goes
And living in a town that everybody knows
Bless take it slow and just see where it goes
I love living my life where the tall grass grows

We were walking through the tall grass
Heading down to the swimming hole
And these beers ain't gonna last
You know we're always needing more
Just looking for a good time
Laid back and living slow
Everybody's feeling fine, watching that sun get low

Ole bright suns shinning on some tanned up legs
Ole grilled up sausage on a piece of white bread
It don't get much better for some folks like us
And there ain't no rebel gonna stop my buck
And them young'ns on a 4 wheeler stirring up dust
Billy hiding in his truck trying roll one up
Just a few good things in my life that I love
Just a few good things that's in my blood
If I ever die young don't cry for me
Cuz if my spirit lives on you know where I'll be
There ain't many boys out there that ain't been found
Rip everything but pines up outta the ground
While me and my friends take time real slow
Drop it down to 4 low and let it sooth my soul
Everyday get stuck in a big mud hole
Just sit right there and watch the sun get low

We were walking through the tall grass
Heading down to the swimming hole
And these beers ain't gonna last
You know we're always needing more
Just looking for a good time
Laid back and living slow
Everybody's feeling fine
Watching that sun get low

Oooh
Watching that sun get low
Living slow, laid back and living slow
Watching that sun get low
Watching that sun get low
You know I'm feeling fine, feeling fine
Tall grass
