[Verse 1 – Winter Life]
Threw my gear in the back of the four-door truck,
Rod and reel, jig sticks, flashers, and the cam.
Cooler full of bait and a thermos full of Joe,
Headin’ up north where the cold winds blow.
Dragging my sled with the ATV, or my ice shack,
Pop-up shack and a full Yeti.
The lake’s locked tight like a vault of ice,
But the crappies and walleye, man, they bite nice.
[Chorus]
This is the life, this is the dream,
Where love runs deep and the air cuts clean.
Frozen nights or summer days,
We find our joy in simple ways.
From a backyard fire to a 10-inch hole,
We’re chasin’ love and frozen gold.
This is the life — my happy place,
Right here, right now, no need to chase.
[Verse 2 – Summer Life]
Friday night, the work week’s done,
Crack a cold one, here comes fun.
Kids are laughing, runnin’ wild,
Backyard magic, summer style.
Saturday, we hit the road,
Truck packed up, adventure mode.
Fishing poles and cooler clinks,
Campfire smoke and time to think.
[Pre-Chorus]
Friends pull up, the fire’s lit,
Talkin’ ‘bout life, just laughin’ a bit.
[Chorus]
This is the life, this is the dream,
Where love runs deep and the air cuts clean.
Frozen nights or summer days,
We find our joy in simple ways.
From a backyard fire to a 10-inch hole,
We’re chasin’ love and frozen gold.
This is the life — my happy place,
Right here, right now, no need to chase.
[Bridge]
Flag up in the snow or stars up high,
With you beside me, it’s all alright.
Seasons change but the feeling stays,
We’ve got it all in these simple days.
[Final Chorus]
This is the life, this is the dream,
Where love runs deep and the sky’s so clean.
Frozen nights or summer days,
We find our joy in simple ways.
From a backyard fire to a 10-inch hole,
We’re chasin’ love and frozen gold.
This is the life — my happy place,
Right here, right now, no need to chase.
[Outro]
Yeah, this is the life…
Chasin’ frozen gold…
With you, I’m home.
