Beats A Million Bucks
Chasing Dreams and Carolina Sunsets: Beats A Million Bucks
Lyrics
I grew up in a small town, ten minutes from the beach
Growing up close to the beach in a small town
Moved on up to Asheville the year I turned thirteen
Moving to Asheville at thirteen years old
I walked the halls of Reynolds High, man, I sure loved high school
Fond memories of enjoying high school at Reynolds High
Then ended up in Chapel Hill wearing Carolina Blue
Attending Chapel Hill and affiliating with Carolina Blue
It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown
Reflecting on the sunrise in the hometown
It's a smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house
Seeing happiness in his mother's smile while she cooks at home
It's hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck
Experiencing joy hearing his song on the radio with friends in his truck
Nah, I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucks
Expressing contentment despite not being wealthy
I still rock that gold belt buckle my dad got me sophomore year
Wearing a meaningful gold belt buckle from his father
I've got the world's two greatest brothers and we can sure throw back some beer
Having great relationships with his brothers and enjoying beer with them
I helped Jimmie win a couple rings on that old Lowe's Kobalt Chevy
Participating in helping Jimmie win in racing
And grabbed my guitar and one big dream and moved on to music city
Pursuing his musical dream by moving to Music City (Nashville)
It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown
Continuing to see the sunrise over his hometown
It's a smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house
Witnessing his mother's happiness while cooking at home
It's hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck
Enjoying his song on the radio with friends in his truck
Nah, I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucks
Emphasizing satisfaction despite not being materially wealthy
So here's to all my buddies and the ones I ain't met yet
Toasting to his friends, both current and future
I don't need a lot of money to make me a happy man
Stating that money isn't necessary for his happiness
And some might call it crazy, some might call it luck
Others might view his choices as unconventional or lucky
But I just call it my life and it beats a million bucks
Calling his life, with its experiences, his true treasure
It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown
Reiterating the sunrise over his hometown as a familiar sight
It's a smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house
Continuing to see joy in his mother while she cooks at home
It's hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck
Experiencing the happiness of his song on the radio with friends
Nah, I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, it beats a million bucks
Reaffirming contentment despite not being materially rich
Yeah, it beats a million bucks
Repeating that his life surpasses the value of a million dollars
(Nah, we ain't done yet)
Indicating there's more to come, suggesting an ongoing journey
