I recall the first time that we kissed And the taste of Dr. Pepper on your lips When I asked you for forever, I was scared to d**h We both smiled and then we cried when you said yes She was minutes old when they handed her to me How could something so tiny bring me to my knees But through first steps and patty-cake Barbie dolls and having first dates I'm holding onto something here That time just can't erase CHORUS: I've got big pockets for my soul They're big and wide and deep Tailor-made for all my precious memories There's a hole that's small, yet big enough To let the bad times go Thank God, I've got big pockets for my soul Burgers on the grill and lemonade Fishin' with the kids on Marble Lake I hold the whole world in my hands Each time I reminisce I may not be a wealthy man But don't say that I'm not rich CHORUS: I've got big pockets for my soul They're big and wide and deep Tailor-made for all my precious memories There's a hole that's small, yet big enough To let the bad times go Thank God, I've got big pockets for my soul They're tailor-made for all my precious memories There's a hole that's small, yet big enough To let the bad times go Thank God, I've got big pockets for my soul
