I was born to a family of jokers

And it ain't a mystery you fell for me

Make me your country bride

You'll be my prince of tides

Cattails dancing in the light

Yeah, folks like us

We may lie down in darkness

But we don't lose our sparks; we bring back a good story to tell

Sunsets better than a movie

And to toast to good nights with friends
