Pick It Up

I put a fishing rod by your bed Right next to a bible I leaned a guitar in the corner of your room With some Milsap on vinyl I figured the best thing I could do was put a thing or two And that it wouldn't hurt to have in your way, on your path Hoping you might pick it up one day And you might learn a couple pretty cool things That I love to do Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it I don't know what you gonna be But I hope you smile when you think of me Cause I helped make you But I didn't never try to make you pick it up You just pick it up, pick it up Early to rise, headin' to work Open a door for a stranger Yes sir, yes Mama, red dirt on my hands Showing you the best way I can So you might pick it up one day And you might learn a couple pretty cool things That I love to do Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it I don't know what you gonna be But I hope you smile when you think of me Cause I helped make you But i didn't never try to make you pick it up Yeah, you just pick it up Dancing and kissing your Mama in the kitchen Treatin' her like a princess, hoping you might pick it up one day Hoping you might learn a couple pretty cool things That I love to do Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it I don't know what you gonna be But i hope you smile when you think of me Cause I helped make you But I didn't never try to make you pick it up Yeah, you just pick it up, pick it up You just pick it up, pick it up, yeah I hope you pick it up You just pick it up
