[Verse 1]
Pulled the cooler off the tailgate
Bare feet in the river mud
You laughed when I missed the worm box
And the bobber sunk too slow
[Verse 2]
By noon my nose was peeling
Red as that old cast-iron pot
You rubbed aloe on my shoulders
Said, "Baby, that sun don't stop"
[Pre-Chorus]
Smoke was curling up the pine trees
Guitar chords passed hand to hand
You leaned in close and whispered
"Stay right here if you can"
[Chorus]
Sunshine, sunshine
Burn me slow
Campfire, campfire
Don’t let me go
River water on my ankles
Hook in the line
Sunshine, sunshine
You’re my kind
[Verse 3]
Catfish rolled by the cypress
Tin cup sweating on the dock
You sang off-key to the crickets
And I forgot to watch the clock
[Verse 4]
When the embers turned to diamonds
You laid your head on my chest
I said, "This is all I need here"
You smiled like you knew the rest
[Pre-Chorus]
Smoke was curling up the pine trees
Guitar chords passed hand to hand
You leaned in close and whispered
"Stay right here if you can"
[Chorus]
Sunshine, sunshine
Burn me slow
Campfire, campfire
Don’t let me go
River water on my ankles
Hook in the line
Sunshine, sunshine
You’re my kind
[Bridge]
Morning found our boots in the dew
Sleeves rolled up, skin all pink
You kissed that sunburn laughing
And made me lose my think
[Chorus]
Sunshine, sunshine
Burn me slow
Campfire, campfire
Don’t let me go
River water on my ankles
Hook in the line
Sunshine, sunshine
You’re my kind
