Wouldn't it be great to win a couple million bucks?
Leave the noise behind, just ride on a little luck
Buy the things I dreamed of, never thought I'd hold
A big ol' acre, where the grass grows bold
Just me, my wife, and the dogs out back Sunset sittin' on a wraparound shack No rush, no rules, just takin' my time That's the dream, that million dollar peace of mind
Work a part-time job, call in when I please Ain't chasin' checks, just chasin' peace Got a boat on the dock and a rod in my hand Catchin' all my troubles, lettin' 'em land Out on the lake where the water runs deep That's where I go when I can't find sleep Ain't about the money, it's what l'd leave behind
That stress-free livin' — my peace of mind
No more traffic jams or nine-to-five blues Just campfire nights and worn-out boots Laughin' 'round the table, grillin' up some meat
Dogs at our feet, yeah, life is sweet
No alarm clocks, just the sound of birds Sayin' more with silence than the world ever heard
That big ol' sky and a front porch swing Man, it don't take much to feel like a king
Work a part-time job, call in when I please Ain't chasin' checks, just chasin' peace Got a boat on the dock and a rod in my hand Catchin' all my troubles, lettin' 'em land Out on the lake where the water runs deep That's where I go when I can't find sleep Ain't about the money, it's what l'd leave behind
That stress-free livin' — my peace of mind
Maybe l'll never hit that lucky break
But I'll keep on dreamin' by this quiet lake
'Cause freedom ain't bought — it's a way to live
And peace ain't somethin' the world can give
So I'll work that part-time job, smile every day
Love a little harder, come what may Got my boat, my dogs, and the one I love Stars up above, yeah that's enough
Out on the lake, lettin' all the stress unwind That's the real reward — my peace of mind
Yeah, me, my wife, and the dogs out back...
A million dreams, on a simple patch
