about
Sweet Tea And Cornbread is about love, life, loss, and telling stories on the back porch.
lyrics
Sitting on the back porch holding' Papa's hand
Drinking sweet tea and eating white cornbread
He's telling the same old stories time and time again
Drinking sweet tea and eating white cornbread
Staring at the mountains and telling silly jokes
Drinking sweet tea and eating white cornbread
Time keeps on moving… slipping slipping away
The clock keeps on ticking… ticking ticking ticking ticking away
Sometimes it seems like yesterday but a million miles away
I try hard to remember as the pictures start to fade away
This porch just aint the same without him as I hold my daughters hand
I'm telling her the same old stories time and time again
She's kind enough to laugh with me at all my silly jokes
I'm hoping to fill her heart with love before it's my time to go
Tic toc tic toc tic toc tic toc
Drinking sweet tea and eating white cornbread
Sometimes it seems like yesterday but a million miles away
I try hard to remember as the pictures start to fade away
Time keeps on moving moving
Clock keeps on ticking ticking
Tic toc tic toc
Ticking ticking
