"The Present (Story)" lyrics
My dad, my daddy, was like the best story teller. He's still one of the greatest
You know, we'd be sitting around the fire or something, where it's just the last few stragglers hanging out you know, like the core group
Right then, I'd be like man, daddy, tell that one about, about that one time cornbread broke the stop sign in half. And like just these random stories, I always loved them
It was always so hard for me to imagine me having my own stories like that. He would say man, you're gonna have the same stories, don't worry about it. You won't know that it's happening until have it's already happened
I'll be damned, he was right! Yeah, man, I got so many stories now, my kids ask me all the time. They want to hear just me tell any story, and it can be the same one over and over. It's so cool Things right in the present moment are always as simple as they'll ever be. It's just a blessing. It's a gift. It's the present
Here it goes
You know, we'd be sitting around the fire or something, where it's just the last few stragglers hanging out you know, like the core group
