"Keeping The World Away" lyrics
"Keeping The World Away"
I've lost sunsets
Worrying 'bout tomorrow
And I've read headlines
That stole my peace of mind
And I've got sideways
Off the straight and narrow
And thought more money
Would help me sleep at night
Learning how to make the most of this whole ride
Ain't figured it all out but, Lord, I'm trying
Keep tomatoes comin' up in the garden
Keep bare feet runnin' in the dirt
Keep pickin' them roadside flowers
Leave 'em in the windowsill just for her
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch
And the Good Book by the bed
Keep a boat tied up to the dock
When the wind starts blowin' in from the West
Little less keepin' up with the Jones'
A little more holdin' onto my own
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made
When we're keeping the world away
Sippin' good whiskey
Underneath the stars
Is a good reminder
That Heaven ain't that far
Bedtime prayers and a forehead kiss goodnight
Thank Him for the little things in life
And we'll just
Keep tomatoes comin' up in the garden
Keep bare feet runnin' in the dirt
Keep pickin' them roadside flowers
Leave 'em in the windowsill just for her
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch
And the Good Book by the bed
Keep a boat tied up to the dock
When the wind starts blowin' in from the West
Little less keepin' up with the Jones'
A little more holdin' onto my own
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made
When we're keeping the world away
When we're keeping the world away
We got all we need inside these walls
So, we ain't pickin' up even if it calls
We'll just
Keep tomatoes comin' up in the garden
Keep bare feet runnin' in the dirt
Keep pickin' them roadside flowers
Leave 'em in the windowsill just for her
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch
And the Good Book by the bed
Keep a boat tied up to the dock
When the wind starts blowin' in from the West
Little less keepin' up with the Jones'
A little more holdin' onto my own
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made
When we're keeping the world away
When we're keeping the world away

Cody Johnson - "Diamond In My Pocket" Saturday night and the moon is out
Just shinin' over top of the pines
I'm headin' on down to my baby's house
Gonna take her on a midnight ride
Now I'm on these backroads winding down to Kickapoo...
Zac Brown Band - "Homegrown" I got a piece of land, out in the countryside
Lay back and smell the sun
Warm up the Georgia pine
Feels so good to be taking it easy
Why would I ever leave?
'Cause I know
I got some good friends...
Keith Urban - "Cop Car" We drove right past
That no trespassing sign
We sat on the tailgate
And watched the planes take off
We thought we had all night
There was no need to rush
That's when those cops
Came pulling up
And...
Old Dominion - "Me Most Nights" Counting seconds, counting minutes, counting hours, that's the game I play
I give the camera roll another scroll, take my soul to a brighter day
I find a dark little bar in the heart of the Nashville...
Russell Dickerson - "She Likes It" She likes it when I
Wear a suit
Pick her favorite movie
When I open up, when she's talking to me
When I go get groceries and I bring back flowers
And I rub her back for like half an hour
Ooh, ooh,...
