I
had a dream that I was sitting across the table from a man
said son you got two choices holding something in each hand
one had all the money you could ever spend on earth
the other just a few seeds in a little pile of dirt
I started reaching for that dollar just like anyone else
then I stopped and I thought to myself
I've seen the lights of LA from a penthouse suite
I've drank the finest champagne at 30,000 feet
I've worn a house on my wrist got all these names on my phone
but everything on that list ain't got nothing on
Sittin' on some plain ground afire sippin' on a beer in a blind
or watching God paint the sky when the day is done
hell with all that gold it don't shine
like the morning sun through them pines
you keep that money buddy I'll take the country and run
so
I woke up and walked out felt that early morning chill
steam rolling off my coffee fog rolling off the hills
even if I had the chance now I wouldn't
change it if I could got a truck and a
dog and a buck on the wall y'all I got
it pretty damn good and I've seen the
lights of LA from a penthouse suite I've
drank the finest champagne at 30,000
feet I've worn a house on my wrist got all
these names on my phone but everything on that
list ain't got nothing on Sittin' on some
plain ground afire sippin' on a beer in a
blind or watching God paint the sky when
the day is done hell with all that gold it
don't shine like the morning sun through
them pines you keep that money buddy
I'll take the country and run as fast as
I can and never look back quit all that
chasing ain't no changing me it's who I am
it's who I am
I've seen the lights of LA from a penthouse suite
I've drank the finest champagne at 30,000 feet
I've worn a house on my wrist got all these names on my
phone but everything on that list ain't got a damn thing on
Sittin' on some plain ground afire sippin' on a beer in a
blind or watching God paint the sky when the day is done
hell with all that gold it don't shine like the morning sun through
them pines you keep that money buddy I'll take the country and run
