[Intro] [acoustic guitar strumming, electric guitar lead riff] [Chorus] [male vocals, full band] Thanks for makin' life so good Sweet memories of childhood Had the best time just because And here's the stuff that we loved [electric guitar solo] [Verse 1] [bass and drums continue] Apple orchards at the Hills farm Mowing grass on the tractor near the barn Making pickles Uncle Jack's hot dogs Throwing darts without a helmet on Catching minnows in the creek Mosquitoes bit us but we didn't make a peep Papa found us when we're waist deep Clean us up, sip a can of Genesee [Interlude] [drums and bass drop out, acoustic guitar continues] [spoken] Tall boys that is. You know, Papa had eyes in the back of his head. [Chorus] [full band enters] Thanks for making life so good Sweet memories of childhood Had the best time just because And here's the stuff that we loved [Verse 2] Fall off the hammock and climb the tree Jess and Ashley play with Nana's jewelry Runnin' in the yard, catchin' lightning bugs No time for TV when it's this much fun Play some card games and dominoes Go spit hearts and tic-tac-toe On the fourth it's the place to go No I don't ever ever want to go home [Interlude] [spoken] You know, Nana's favorite color is mauve, and she likes to collect dolls. Boy I'm glad those dolls never came to life. You know, the scary one in the chair? Pretty sure it was gonna get me. [Chorus] Thanks for making life so good Sweet memories of childhood Had the best time just 'cuz Here's to the stuff that we loved Thanks for making life so good Sweet memories of childhood Had the best time just 'cuz Here's to the stuff that we loved Here's to the stuff that we loved [final acoustic guitar strum]
