Tall Grass
The Lacs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We were walking through the tall grass
heading down to the swinging whole
but these beers aint gonna last
tho were always needing more
just looking for a good time
laid back and living slow
everybody is feeling fine
watching that sun get low...

I watch the sun fade out in that big red sky
im just creek bank a chillin the time of my
life navigatin throu the tall grass

swimmin and fishin with the cane poles
bobbers and a bucket of crickets,

later on the gator slide sippin that wine
catching all the white perches hittin the
line i gotta get a mess for later on in the
night cause fish and grits is the shit when
its cooked just right...
I got Mr. Smiths daughter hanging on
to my arm were just some country boys
and girls gettin down on the farm and the
bright summer sun couldnt get no hotter so
the shirts come off and we jump in the
water i love going to a place where
everybody goes and livin in a town that
everybody knows lets take it slow and just
see where it goes i love livin my life where
the tall grass grows...
Walking through the tall grass headed down
to the swimming hole and these beers ain't
gonna last tho were always needing more
just lookin for a good time laid back and
moving slow everybody's feeling fine what
can the Sun get low...
Oh that bright sun shining up on some
tanned up legs Oh grilled up sausage on a
piece of white bread dont get much better
for some folks like us, and aint no
wheather going to stop my butt and them
young ones running on four wheelers
stirring up dust billys in his truck tryin to roll
one up just a few good things in my life that
I love its a few good things it's in my blood if
I ever die young don't cry for me cause if
my spirit lives on you'll know where I'll be
There ain't any words out there that aint
been found ripped everything but pines
up out of the ground me and my friends
take time real slow and drop it down in 4
low and let it sooth my soul and if we do
get stuck in a big mud hole will sit right
there and watch the Sun go low...
CHORSE
Walking through the tall grass headed down
to the swimming hole and these beers ain't
gonna last tho were always needing more
just looking for a good time laid back and
live in Slow everybody's feeling fine
watching the Sun go low...
Watching the Sun go low...
laid back and live in slow.
watching that sun get low...
