Pick It Up
Legacy Unveiled: Luke Bryan's Musical Wisdom for Tomorrow
Lyrics
I put a fishing rod by your bed
I placed a fishing rod beside your bed.
Right next to a Bible
Adjacent to it, there's a Bible.
I leaned a guitar in the corner of your room
A guitar is leaning in the corner of your room.
With some Milsap on vinyl
There's some Milsap music on vinyl.
I figured the best thing I could do
I thought it would be beneficial to introduce a few things.
Was put a thing or two
I wanted to impart some knowledge.
And that it wouldn't hurt to have in your way, on your path
These items might guide you on your journey.
Hoping you might pick it up one day
Hoping you'll adopt these interests someday.
And you might learn a couple pretty cool things
You may learn some interesting things I enjoy.
That I love to do
Things I love to do.
Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it to you
Adapt them to yourself.
I don't know what you gonna be
I'm unsure of your future.
But I hope you smile when you think of me
But I hope you recall me with a smile.
'Cause I helped make you
I played a role in creating you.
But I didn't never try to make you pick it up
I didn't force you to adopt these interests.
You just pick it up, pick it up
You naturally pick them up.
Early to rise, headin' to work
Early mornings, off to work.
Open a door for a stranger
Politeness, opening doors for strangers.
Yes sir, yes madam, red dirt on my hands
Being respectful, with red dirt on my hands.
Showing you the best way I can
Teaching you the best way I know.
So you might pick it up one day
Hoping you'll pick up these habits one day.
And you might learn a couple pretty cool things
You may learn things I find enjoyable.
That I love to do
Things I love to do.
Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it to you
Adapt them to your own personality.
I don't know what you gonna be
I'm uncertain about your future endeavors.
But I hope you smile when you think of me
But I hope you remember me with a smile.
'Cause I helped make you
I played a part in shaping who you are.
But I didn't never try to make you pick it up
I didn't force these habits onto you.
Yeah, you just pick it up
You naturally adopt them.
Dancing and kissing your Mama in the kitchen
Dancing and showing affection to your mother in the kitchen.
Treatin' her like a princess, hoping you might pick it up one day
Treating her like royalty, hoping you'll emulate it.
Hoping you might learn a couple pretty cool things
Hoping you'll acquire these positive traits.
That I love to do
Learning enjoyable things that I love to do.
Then you can take it and spin it, and fit it to you
Adapting them to your own life.
I don't know what you gonna be
I'm unsure of your future path.
But I hope you smile when you think of me
But I hope thoughts of me bring a smile.
'Cause I helped make you
I contributed to shaping who you are.
But I didn't never try to make you pick it up
I didn't impose these habits on you.
Yeah, you just pick it up, pick it up
You naturally adopt them.
You just pick it up, pick it up, yeah
You naturally adopt them repeatedly.
I hope you pick it up
I hope you embrace these habits.
You just pick it up
You naturally adopt them repeatedly.
