Being Country
My Father he taught me many lessons
Some that I am learning as a man
Through the years I’ve watched him and listened Now I live my life by the words he often said.
He told me some folks think that life’s about possessions living large won’t help you get ahead
He learned through living, life is what you make it
A ll the fancy things wont matter in the end
Being country taught me all about good living You build pride from working with your hands Hard times and tight money teach compassion Trust your faith, your family and friends
Daddy always found the time to help a stranger Can’t remember a single day he missed at work On Sundays he’d sing and play his guitar. His good old songs had good lessons in the words
