Crossin' Dixon - I Love My Old Bird Dog & I Love You Lyrics

I sat down with my Grandma Sometimes I'm mad at the world, made at this town
Mad cause I can't lose the same five pounds
That I've been trying to lose for three or four years now

Sometimes I feel like a truck that just won't run
On the side of the road in the July sun
There ain't another car for miles that I can thumb down
Well I guess every now and then you're gunna land on a bad day

Though I still do, I know I can't complain
Cause I love what I do, love where I'm at
Love a strong cup of coffee and my old black hat
My big wool blanket, sleeping in my cowboy boots

I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
Love my red guitar, I bang around on some
And I love, ove, ove you
Baby I love, ove, ove you

Now heaven to me is a simple thing
It's just you and me and phone that don't ring
Popcorn poppin', wanna layin' around Friday night
Seein' your smile when I wake up

The way you slide to the middle of my pick up truck
The way you say baby it's all gonna be alright
When I walk in at the end of a worn out day

And I see you there baby how can I complain
Cause I love what I do, love where I'm at
Love a strong cup of coffee and my old black hat
My big wool blanket, sleeping in my cowboy boots

I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
Love my red guitar, I bang around on some
And I love, ove, ove you
Baby I love, ove, ove you
Yes I do

Well I love where I've been but I don't look back
I thank God for the life he lets me have
My big wool blanket, sleeping in my cowboy boots

I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
Love my red guitar, I bang around on some
And I love, ove, ove you
Baby I love, ove, ove you
Yeah, I love, ove, ovvve, youuuu oooo
Yes I do
Yes I do

On a lawn chair by the lake
She told me some stories
About the good old days

And I said, Grandma, I know my life has just begun
But Grandma, I think I'm missing all the fun
Promise me I'll get to do
Just half the things you've done

I want to see Montana, knit a sweater
Build a family, keep it together
Learn a million songs and sing them loud

I want to love one man for 60 years
Play gin rummy with my grandkids
I want to do it all, Grandma, tell me how
And she gave me the secret: start now

You sat down on my blanket
At a picnic last July

And since then I've spent almost every
Minute by your side
So, darling, you say you want to take it slow

But darling, I think you're written in my soul
There's so much we could have together
I'm ready, baby, let's go

I want to see Montana, knit a sweater
Build a family, keep it together
Learn a million songs and sing them loud

I want to love one man for 60 years
Play gin rummy with my grandkids
I want to do it all; my Grandma showed me how
She gave me the secret: start now

Baby I think you're the one that I've been waiting for
And now you're here; let's not wait anymore

I want to see Montana, knit a sweater
Build a family, keep it together
Learn a million songs and sing them loud

I want to love one man for 60 years
Play gin rummy with my grandkids
I want to do it all; my Grandma showed me how
And baby, here's the secret: start now
Start now
