What We Love To Do |
Going from town to town and knocking door to door |
Writin' songs on napkins to keep from gettin' bored |
Starving for some work and a little bite to eat |
Countin' last night’s money and wonderin' where we’d sleep |
Wonderin' what she’s doin' since the last time that I called |
Cause she’s alone in Virginia and I’m in Arkansas |
Lord knows I love my music and she knows I love her too |
She’s a better man than I am to let me do the things I do |
We like to pick and sing and it’s not a nine to five |
It may not be a real job but it keeps our dream alive |
We’ve sung for more than many and sometimes quite a few |
Either way it doesn’t matter it’s what we love to do |
(fiddle) |
Each night is somethin' different cause we’re learning more each day |
We know now how the cards are dealt and we know now how to play |
After weeks the days seem longer but at home not long at all |
The sun shines warm at our house but out here it feels like fall |
(fiddle) |
Backstage we say a small prayer then do what we do best |
The band begins our music and we’ll do all the rest |
The ride home will be the long one as soon as the show is through |
I know she’ll be up waiting it’s what we love to do |
We like to pick and sing… |
We like to pick and sing… |
