As the sunlight peaks over the top of the trees
And the dew gives way to a cool breeze
I find myself sittin' next to my hero
It's a tradition daddy said so
He said he learned this from his daddy long ago
And if I stayed real still I might find what I'm lookin' for
And I did
[Chorus]
I found out what life's about
When I was sittin' up in that tree
I realized I was huntin' more than deer
When it was just him and me
Hell yeah I had a ball
Spent time with family
But the thrill of the kill
Ain't nothin' compared to these memories
[Verse 2]
Now as the sunlight peaks over the top of them trees
And the dew gives way to that cool breeze
I find myself sittin' next to my hero
Well he's only four feet tall
With his daddy's face
And he's as excited as I was
On the day that my daddy told me
If I stayed real still I might find what I'm lookin' for
[Chorus]
I found out what life's about
When I was sittin' up in that tree
I realized I was huntin' more than deer
When it was just him and me
Hell yeah I had a ball
Spent time with family
But the thrill of the kill
Ain't nothin' compared to these memories
[Bridge]
Well now my life is gettin' faster
(but I slow down to enjoy these times)
There's nothin' more important than memories
(Oh yeah I realize)
[Chorus]
I found out what life's about
When I was sittin' up in that tree
I realized I was huntin' more than deer
When it was just him and me
Hell yeah I had a ball
Spent time with family
But the thrill of the kill
Ain't nothin' compared to these memories
[Verse 1] As the sunlight peaks over the top of the trees And the dew gives way to a cool breeze I find myself sittin' next to my hero It's a tradition daddy said so He said he learned this from his daddy long ago And if I stayed real still I might find what I'm lookin' for And I did [Chorus] I found out what life's about When I was sittin' up in that tree I realized I was huntin' more than deer When it was just him and me Hell yeah I had a ball Spent time with family But the thrill of the kill Ain't nothin' compared to these memories [Verse 2] Now as the sunlight peaks over the top of them trees And the dew gives way to that cool breeze I find myself sittin' next to my hero Well he's only four feet tall With his daddy's face And he's as excited as I was On the day that my daddy told me If I stayed real still I might find what I'm lookin' for [Chorus] I found out what life's about When I was sittin' up in that tree I realized I was huntin' more than deer When it was just him and me Hell yeah I had a ball Spent time with family But the thrill of the kill Ain't nothin' compared to these memories [Bridge] Well now my life is gettin' faster (but I slow down to enjoy these times) There's nothin' more important than memories (Oh yeah I realize) [Chorus] I found out what life's about When I was sittin' up in that tree I realized I was huntin' more than deer When it was just him and me Hell yeah I had a ball Spent time with family But the thrill of the kill Ain't nothin' compared to these memories Explain Request ×
