Cause all i know, is that time sure shows Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow But I'm finding a life Cause all i know, is that time sure shows Sometimes its hard to let go, feelings seem to grow But I'm finding a life Where I'm at feels right This is my cloud 9, this land of mine Living life out in the pines Yeahhh, whoa Living life out in the pines Yeah, whoa My daddy was a hard working man Could fix anything with his own two hands Mr. Macgyver what he called himself Be there for anybody if they ever needed help I would always love when he would take me fishing Or help me with my bike when it needed fix in He was the one who gave me my mission He's been gone eleven years now lord i sure miss him But theres no better way to say when you live your life To the true southern way To not back down To never be afraid i think my pops for the way i was raised (chorus) Wide open, thats how i live Swing on the front porch over looking the field No honking horns or no loud sirens Just relaxing sounds of birds and crickets chirping and chiming (thats right) I spend my time with family and friends We enjoy the fire up the grill and smoke us some ribs Or walk to the pond catch a couple of fish Or sit by the fire with a guitar playing a couple of riffs This country life's as real as it gets Im a true rebel here with no regrets My wife and daughter keep me strong Cause there ain't no place like home (chorus) x2
