Glad To Be Here (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(album: The Dream - 2020)

Well, I hear folks talking 'bout the shape they're in
On the backyard porch with all their friends
They say damn my job and damn my life
Don't tell 'em that I told you, but it blows my mind

What they don't see is the shade under the oak tree
Sunshine behind the clouds
Rich dirt growing up tomatoes
Pass the salt I can almost taste 'em
Some folks they focus on the broke spoke
Not me, I'm so over things I don't and coulda had
Bring on the good, bring on the bad, 'cause
Even if the end is near
I'm just glad to be here

I ain't promised tomorrow but I ain't scared of the grave
I'm just thankful for the breath of a brand new day
When them nitpicking people try to throw me off track
I just keep on rolling, keep on rolling, like an old train smoke blowing

What they don't see is the shade under the oak tree
Sunshine behind the clouds
Rich dirt growing up tomatoes
Pass the salt I can almost taste 'em
Some folks they focus on the broke spoke
Not me, I'm so over things I don't and coulda had
Bring on the good, bring on the bad, 'cause
Even if the end is near
I'm just glad to be here

Slow down take a look around
Slow down take a good look around
Slow down take a long look around
Slow down take a good long look all the way around

What they don't see is the shade under the oak tree
Sunshine behind the clouds
Rich dirt growing up tomatoes
Pass the salt I can almost taste 'em
Some folks they focus on the broke spoke
Not me, I'm so over things I don't and coulda had
Bring on the good, bring on the bad, 'cause
Even if the end is near
Even if the end is near
I'm just glad to be here
