Baylor County Lyrics by Matt Daniel

All I’ll Ever Need

2022

[Verse 1]
I never liked to answer to nobody
I wish that there could be a better way
City slickers tryna take the country
And we can't pay to keep the man away

[Verse 2]
See, I left home for a higher way of livin'
Not knowin' busy livin' wasn't where to be
And I've been playin' tunes all around the country
Now the country's the only place I wanna be

[Chorus]
Now I'm standin' at the corner of the future and old memories
Wonderin' how long we're gonna last
Well, the fields of gold are good for the soul
And the cotton keeps you livin'
I wish I coulda lived here in the past
Yeah, I wish I coulda lived here in the past

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Finally found a place to call my home
Somewhere that I never want to leave
The Texas sky just took away my pain
Freedoms just as far as I can see

[Chorus]
Now I'm standin' at the corner of the future and old memories
Wonderin' how long we're gonna last
Well, the fields of gold are good for the soul
And the cotton keeps you livin'
I wish I coulda lived here in the past
Yeah, I wish I coulda lived here in the past

[Verse 4]
When I'm dead and gone, they'll take my memory
And sell it to the highest bidder's hand
They'll wonder why they're runnin' out of country
And find that simple life in high demand

[Chorus]
Now I'm standin' at the corner of the future and old memories
Wonderin' how long we're gonna last
Well, the fields of gold are good for the soul
And the cotton keeps you livin'
I wish I coulda lived here in the past
Yeah, I wish I coulda lived here in the past

[Outro]
Aww, yeah-yeah
