The Sound

Saturday morning, coffee's on

Well, it's spring outside, but it feels like the fall

And if I close my eyes

It feels like I'm back in East Texas

Young boy, little house, and a big blue sky

Yeah, a day full of chores ahead

And I'd still be in bed

You'd get started, and I'd catch up

Yeah, the sun would be hot, busy work

We'd quit early, fool around in the garage

We'd always know

Dinner's on by 7:30

Yeah, the sun sets late here this time of year

I know that most things change

There's a few that stay the same

Yeah, the way you love

And the way the world goes 'round

Few things I'll never forget

How you taught me

How to love one woman and never let her go

How to wait

How you'll always be late

And tell her she's beautiful every single day

How to keep a good dog around

And a sharp knife in your pocket

Don't go looking for trouble

But know where the back door is

How to pay your tithe every Sunday

And work hard on Mondays

'Cause you never know when it might be your last

But you'll always know

Dinner's on by 7:30

Yeah, the sun sets late here this time of year

I know that most things change

There's a few that stay the same

Yeah, the taxes are due

And the seed goes in the ground

Oh, it goes in the ground

You'd always know

Dinner's on by 7:30

Yeah, the sun sets late here this time of year

I know that most things change

There's a few that stay the same

The way you love

And the way the world goes 'round

Yeah, the taxes are due

And the seed goes in the ground

You know my voice may fade

But you'll never forget the sound

Oh, you'll never forget the sound
