[Verse 1] Old red pickup parked beside the barn Working on the engine, keeping out of harm Sun comes up over sweet clover fields Living off the harvest that the good earth yields [Chorus] Give me a front porch, a cold glass of tea A simple life is all I ever need Quiet dark night, stars overhead Warm blanket waiting on a iron frame bed [Verse 2] Dirt road winding where the wild pine grows Crickets in the evening when the cool breeze blows Don't need a fortune, don't need a crowd Just the sound of the river running soft and proud [Chorus] Give me a front porch, a cold glass of tea A simple life is all I ever need Quiet dark night, stars overhead Warm blanket waiting on a iron frame bed [Guitar Solo] [Outro] Just a front porch... And a simple life... Sun goes down... Peace in my mind.
