lyrics

Early in the morning it was sixty degrees
there was a slight breeze
That was bringing the bees
I was working, on my knees

Rolled up a number
And then maybe another
While laying under cover
Of the old oak tree, the mother

Drove up to town for somethin’ to do
Ridin' with my dog his name is blue
Hangin with the boys on the old avenue
But b’fore its too late, I’m gonna send it back home to you.

The very next day
I was bailin’ the hay
Tryna make a lil pay
But lord there gotta be a better way
Workin by the hour
Then go home and take a shower
Burn a little flower
But you won’t catch me livin’ in no ivory tower

No barroom could replace the love that I receive at home
No city light could shine as bright as the light above my throne
Maybe in another life I could’ve been an urbanite
But out here living with my wife is where I spend my nights
