Let Us Be

Well I met you here by happenstance You're tellin' me bout a true romance But me and the birds we get along just fine And who's elected president Will solve all the worries of our present tense But me and my friends are just happy to be alive Locked inside that treasure chest Holding on to your sentiment And I understand you're a real great man to meet Sweet Virginia be as it may I'm doing fine here where I lay With this Martin box singin' both of us to sleep Walk me over these old pastures Lead me to the edge of the waters Bring me the love of all my brothers Fill the basin up with backwood family moonshine And let us be We don't believe in too much talk Puffin your chest out when you walk No sittin' and spittin' has gotten us this far We're fine here just gettin by Tellin' you the day we die Go and bury us in granddads backyard Walk me over these old pastures Lead me to the edge of the waters Bring me the love of all my brothers Fill the basin up with backwood family moonshine And let us be Walk me over these old pastures Lead me to the edge of the waters Bring me the love of all my brothers Fill the basin up with backwood family moonshine
