Prairie Lea

I spent nine years treadin' water
Chasin' someone else's dreams
But two weeks of solid driving
Brought me down to Prairie Lea

With a screen porch on the pasture
A fire pit by the drive
I’ve got one foot in the river
And it ain’t to cold to dive

CHORUS
In my sweet Prairie Lea
Let the old San Marcos wash over me
In my sweet Prairie Lea

Now it’s well into December
And I’m sitting by the fire
But that’s just to cook my supper
Cause right now it’s sixty-five
In my little fishing cabin
With my guitar on the wall
And my baby’s mixing ice tea
Cause we like ‘em strong and tall

CHORUS

But a week ago last Friday
My Granddad lost the fight
We all knew that it was coming
But that don’t make it all right
Put him in his red vest 'cause it's Christmas
Walk him through a field of stone
Singin' O Come All Ye Faithful
Won't you carry me back home

CHORUS
