Lyrics
I grew up like most of y'all
This big ol' world seems so small
Never grew to earn a PHD
I bounced around this sleepy town
From the age of three to here and now
Things are not the way they used to be
Seeing things as I recall
I didn't have much but I had it all
Looking back I smile from ear to ear
Grandpa take me fishin'
And to this day I miss him
And in my mind his voice is crystal clear
He said
Honestly don't bother me
I'm not big on side critiques
I learned all I know in dungarees
Yes ma'am, no sir, thanks and please
That there is my philosophy
Friends and foes they come and go
Love will persevere
The rest is just what happens 'round here
Between coffee and beer
Billy is in some foreign land
His better half don't understand
They got three young kids they need to feed
Uncle Sam, he wants our vote
As hopes and dreams goes up in smoke
I guess our sweet, sweet freedom ain't so free
We work our fingers to the bone
Do our best to hold our own
We focus on our friends and family
I pray to God they listen
When I tell 'em like my grandpa said to me
He said
Honestly don't bother me
I'm not big on side critiques
I learned all I know in dungarees
Yes ma'am, no sir, thanks and please
That there is my philosophy
Friends and foes they come and go
Love will persevere
The rest is just what happens 'round here
Between coffee and beer
I don't know what K-pop is
Or understand this Bitcoin business
But I know those who count on me believe
That I'll be there if they should call
To help or catch them if they fall
And that's what being wealthy means to me
That everybody has their truth
And I'm not speaking down to you
But I can say all this with no reserve
That no one man that I ever met
At least non that I have met yet
Regretted living grandpa's words
He said
Honestly don't bother me
I'm not big on side critiques
I learned all I know in dungarees
Yes ma'am, no sir, thanks and please
That there is my philosophy
Friends and foes they come and go
Love will persevere
The rest is just what happens 'round here
Between coffee and beer
The rest is just what happens 'round here
Between coffee and beer
The rest is just what happens 'round here
Between coffee and beer
