Set It in Stone
[Verse 1]
There's a plot on a hilltop
With a little patch of grass
Where they'll lay my bones to rest
When my time has come to pass
Carve a bible verse and two dates
Separated by a dash on a piece of granite
Mm-hm-hm
[Verse 2]
I got my name from my daddy
And he got his from his
And I pray when people hear it
They'll remember what I did
With my time on this dirt
'Til I'm six feet under it I won't take for granted
Every day I get
[Chorus]
I'll keep working hard
But quit chasing the money
Pour my soul in this guitar
Then save it evеry Sunday
Wake my wife with a kiss
Be a rock for my kids
'Til thе good Lord calls me home
I'll keep making a name for myself
'Til they set it in stone
[Verse 3]
I wanna sell out of tickets
But never be a sell out
Buy a big ol' house in Franklin
With the porch that wraps around
And if I'll to count my blessing
Hope there's more that I can count
And people call on me 'til they lay me down
[Chorus]
I'll keep working hard
But quit chasing the money
Pour my soul in this guitar
Then save it every Sunday
Wake my wife with a kiss
Be a rock for my kids
'Til the good Lord calls me home
I'll keep making a name for myself
'Til they set it in stone
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'll keep working hard
But quit chasing the money
Pour my soul in this guitar
Then save it every Sunday
Wake my wife with a kiss
Be a rock for my kids
'Til the good Lord calls me home
I'll keep making a name for myself
Oh, I'll keep making a name for myself
'Til they set it in stone
[Outro]
There's a plot on a hilltop
With a little patch of grass
Where they'll lay my bones to rest
When my time has come to pass
Carve a bible verse and two dates
Separated by a dash on a piece of granite
