A few days ago, John turned on the country music TV channel when a song I'd never heard came on. John said, "Oh, this is my new favorite song. As we listened together on the couch, I grabbed his hand and held it tight.
The song is by Josh Turner and here are the lyrics. Click here to listen (the video you see is not the real music video):
I got a home down on the river
I’m married to the woman of my dreams
Got a good truck that gets me down the highway
Everything is perfect or so it seems
Momma and daddy come by sometimes
And everything is fine
My old dog does a little singing
Late at night when the moon gets bright
Sunday morning hear the church bells ringing
Let us go and see who’s getting baptized
We gonna take us a Sunday drive
Cause everything is fine
Everything is fine, fine, fine
Through the sunshine and the rain
I got a peace of mind
You know I can’t complain
I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
Got the same job down at the warehouse
Ain’t never been rich but I sleep at night
Got a little girl that looks like her mamma
She likes it when her daddy tucks her in real tight
One night this week we’re gonna have a fish fry
Cause everything is fine, fine, fine
Through the sunshine and the rain
I got a peace of mind
You know I can’t complain
I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
As we contemplate where we should move once he finishes his required time here in the 3Hs, the lure of amenities, more money, career advancement opportunities, etc. do tempt us from time to time. We just keep coming back to this same idea: We just need a simple life. We already have the best things this life can offer ... right here between the four of us.
