Lyrics
You know I got me a spot somewhereCome onThere’s a little place down the overgrown roadNobody but me and the whole world knowsBeen going there ever since I was a kidOn my red dirt bike, and my blue TexanSpend a lot long summer nightsWith the hood out in the satellitesAin’t the kind of place that I ever sharedBut come on with me, and let me take you whereI do my bobber sinkingPeanut butter sandwich eatin’Watching the world go byWhere I’ve done some beer crackin’Crying, praying, laughin’Just talking to the man in the skyBaby, jump on inThere’s a huckleberry limbWe can leave our cut-offs and our caresWho knows what can happenAnd when the summer sweet jasmine in the airI do all my dreamin’ thereThere’s a big oak on the other sideWhere I took my grandpa’s pocket knifeAnd I carved their names with tears in my eyesWhen he join grandma in the by and byGot it right here in the dashboard boxTip broke off and the blade don’t lockBut I’d better carve our names just fineIf you wanna come along with me next timeI do my bobber sinkingPeanut butter sandwich eatin’Watching the world go byWhere I’ve done some beer crackin’Crying, praying, laughin’Just talking to the man in the skyBaby, jump on inThere’s a huckleberry limbWe can leave our cut-offs and our caresWho knows what can happenAnd with the summer sweet jasmine in the airI do all my dreamin’ thereYeah, I’ve done some bobber sinkingPeanut butter sandwich eatin’Watching the world going byWhere I’ve done some beer crackin’Crying, praying, laughin’Just talking to the big man in the skyBaby, jump on in, there’s a huckleberry limbWe can leave our cut-offs and our caresWho knows what can happenWith the summer sweet jasmine in the airI do all my dreamin’ thereRight there, ha ha ha
