settle on back

(album: Tulip Drive - 2022)

This ain't no 9 to 5
This job we doing brought me to your town tonight
Singing about the slower lower way of life
I'ma tell you now it's more than just a song
When I cross that sussex county line
The ocean air and a beach chair and a welcome sign
Gives me that easy feeling every time
Don't get me wrong I love being with y'all
But when I get home

I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back

I love the neon lights
The crowd, the band, the show, and the fast life
But every now and then I need a peace of mind
A dirt road to a dock
Somewhere we're making time stop

I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back

Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)
Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)
Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)

'Cause I don't do it for the dollars no
I just do it for the hollers
Let me hear ya holler

I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back

I settle on back
I just settle on back
Yeah
