Curly headed babies running wild in the yard
Catching fireflies while the day goes dark
Dogs on the front porch dreaming bout a rabbit
Halfway working through a six-pack habit
Porch swing kissing on the love of my life
Wishing just once, I could take tonight and
Bottle it up
Put it away
Bottle it up
For a rainy day
Bottle it up
For when the clouds roll in
I’ll be sipping this summer on ice again
It tastes so sweet and it feels so good
I know I can’t but buddy if I could
I’d bottle it up
Yeah bottle it up
Old farm truck kicking driveway dust
Mama n them all waving at us
Didn’t mean to bother just passing on by
Got a bucket full of chicken and a pecan pie
Nothing going on gonna make the front page
Just a country’s boys dream getting better with age
We oughta
Bottle it up
Put it away
Bottle it up
For a rainy day
Bottle it up
For when the clouds roll in
I’ll be sipping this summer on ice again
Ya tastes so sweet and it feels so good
I know I can’t but buddy if I could
I’d bottle it up
Yeah bottle it up
Life ain’t no big riddle
Just Jesus and the devil and the people in the middle
Time just keeps on ticking
Every now and then take a blessing you’re given and
Bottle it up
Put it away
Bottle it up
For a rainy day
Bottle it up
For when the clouds roll in
I’ll be sipping this summer on ice again
Ya tastes so sweet and it feels so good
I know I can’t but buddy if I could
I’d bottle it up
Yeah bottle it up
I’d pull it off the shelf blow off the dust
I’d be a billionaire if I could sell this stuff
Bottle it up
Yeah bottle it up
We oughta bottle it up
Yeah bottle it up
Bottle it up
