Lyrics and translation
Original
I've lost sunsets worryin' 'bout tomorrow, and I've read headlines that stole my peace of mind.
I've got sideways off the straight and narrow, and thought more money would help me sleep at night.
Learnin' how to make the most of this whole ride. I ain't figured it all out, but Lord, I'm tryin'.
To keep tomatoes comin' up in the garden, keep bare feet runnin' in the dirt.
Keep pickin' them roadside flowers, leave them in the windowsill just for her.
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch and a good book by the bed.
Keep a boat tied up to the dock when the wind starts blowin' in from the west.
And a little less keepin' up with the Joneses, a little more holdin' on to my own.
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made when we're keepin' 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 good night.
Thank Him for the little things in life.
We'll just keep tomatoes comin' up in the garden, keep bare feet runnin' in the dirt.
Keep pickin' them roadside flowers, leave them in the windowsill just for her.
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch and a good book by the bed.
Keep a boat tied up to the dock when the wind starts blowin' in from the west.
And a little less keepin' up with the Joneses, a little more holdin' on to my own.
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made when we're keepin' the world away.
When we're keepin' 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 them in the windowsill just for her.
Keep a good dog layin' on the front porch and a good book by the bed.
Keep a boat tied up to the dock when the wind starts blowin' in from the west.
A little less keepin' up with the Joneses, a little more holdin' on to my own.
If you ask me, yeah, we sure got it made when we're keepin' the world away.
When we're keepin' the world away
