Handed Down |
| That hammer hanging on the wall |
| Once belonged to my grandpa |
| And that old Remington .22 |
| He gave to me when I learned to shoot |
| This guitar that I’m strumming here |
| Daddy played it every night for years |
| Let me make it clear |
| I used to think the good life |
| Was something you could buy |
| Living for that next high |
| Yeah but that comes at a price |
| Whatever it was was never enough |
| I finally woke up and I took a good look around |
| See the things that mean the most to me I’ve found |
| Have been handed down |
| You hold the door for the girl |
| Say thank you and yes sir |
| You bow your head when we’re turning grace |
| Say what you mean and do what you say |
| You help your neighbor when the chips are down |
| Around here that’s what it’s all about |
| But let me tell you now |
| I used to think the good life |
| Was something you could buy |
| Living for that next high |
| Yeah but that comes at a price |
| Whatever it was was never enough |
| I finally woke up and I took a good look around |
| See the things that mean the most to me I’ve found |
| Have been handed down |
| All through these years I guess I’ve learned a thing or two |
| You can’t put a price on things that mean the most to you |
| Like a small town or football game |
| A sunset and a front porch swing |
| I used to think the good life |
| Was something you could buy |
| Living for that next high |
| But it just don’t satisfy |
| Whatever it was was never enough |
| I finally woke up and I took a good look around |
| See the things that mean the most to me I’ve found |
| Yes the things that I have built my world around |
| Have been handed down |
