He Loved Her

He Loved Her
Yeah
People like to talk about
What they're gonna leave behind
How they're gonna change the world
What's gonna define their lives
I guess I set my sights on
A different kind of legacy
Yeah, I'll know I got it right
If all they say about me is

He had a dog, he drank a beer
He drove the same truck fifteen years
He built a house up on some dirt
He wore his first name on his shirt
He said a prayer, got up at dawn
Showed up to cheer the homеteam on
He earnеd his keep and kept his word
He lived his life and he loved her
Yeah, I do
So don't you go and spend a dime
On one of those high priced stones
If you wanna celebrate my life
Let me tell you what would really mean the most
Circle up on a Friday night
With all the ones who know me well
Raise a glass and tip it back and say
He lived his like anyone else
He had a dog, he drank a beer
He drove the same truck fifteen years
He built a house up on some dirt
He wore his first name on his shirt
He said a prayer, got up at dawn
Showed up to cheer the hometeam on
He earned his keep and kept his word
He lived his life and he loved her

Yes, I do
Don't make it bounce now, come on
He went to work and paid the bills
On Saturdays he mowed the lawn
Just a small town, simple man
Who lived his life like a country song
Ooh yeah
He had a dog, he drank a beer
He drove the same truck fifteen years
He built a house up on some dirt
He wore his first name on his shirt
He said a prayer, got up at dawn
Showed up to cheer the hometeam on
He earned his keep and kept his word
He lived his life and he loved her
And he loved her
Ooh, I guess he set his sights on a
Different kind of legacy
Yes he did
