Life In The Pines

(album: The Grind - 2014)

Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Where I'm at feels right
This is my cloud 9, this land of mine
Living life out in the pines
Yeahhh, whoa
Living life out in the pines
Yeah, whoa

My daddy was a hard working man
Could fix anything with his own two hands
Mr. Macgyver what he called himself
Be there for anybody if they ever needed help

I would always love when he would take me fishing
Or help me with my bike when it needed fix in
He was the one who gave me my mission
He's been gone eleven years now lord I sure miss him

But there's no better way to say when you live your life
To the true southern way
To not back down
To never be afraid I think my pops for the way I was raised

Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Where I'm at feels right
This is my cloud 9, this land of mine
Living life out in the pines
Yeahhh, whoa
Living life out in the pines
Yeah, whoa

Wide open, that's how I live
Swing on the front porch over looking the field
No honking horns or no loud sirens
Just relaxing sounds of birds and crickets chirping and chiming (that's right)
I spend my time with family and friends
We enjoy the fire up the grill and smoke us some ribs
Or walk to the pond catch a couple of fish
Or sit by the fire with a guitar playing a couple of riffs
This country life's as real as it gets
I'm a true rebel here with no regrets
My wife and daughter keep me strong
Cause there ain't no place like home

Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Where I'm at feels right
This is my cloud 9, this land of mine
Living life out in the pines
Yeahhh, whoa
Living life out in the pines
Yeah, whoa

Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Cause all I know, is that time sure shows
Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow
But I'm finding a life
Where I'm at feels right
This is my cloud 9, this land of mine
Living life out in the pines
Yeahhh, whoa
Living life out in the pines
Yeah, whoa
