I send the check for the lease every January
To 1100 Beckham Ridge Road
Have your corn knee-high by July
Where we hunt the bottom by the white oak road

Before you crank the tractor, pump the clutch
I ain't goin' nowhere no time soon, but just

In case I ain't around when you get older
I just thought I'd tell you now so down the road you
Are good to go through the highs and lows
In all life's up and downs
Yeah, that way I'm still there for you somehow
In case I ain't around

Make sure y'all all still eat together
at your Mama's after church Sunday
Throw the dog a ball, take a walk and call
Your brother if you had a hard day

Where the dogwoods bloom, you best be fishin'
When it's my time to die, boy, don't stop livin'

In case I ain't around when you get older
I just thought I'd tell you now so down the road you
Are good to go through the highs and lows
In all life's up and downs
Yeah, that way I'm still there for you somehow
In case I ain't around

I just hope you know that I'm proud of ya
I wanna make sure that you know I love ya

In case I ain't around when you get older
I just thought I'd tell you now so down the road you
Are good to go through the highs and lows
In all life's up and downs
Yeah, that way I'm still there for you somehow
Yeah, that way I'm still there for you somehow
In case I ain't around

In case I ain't around
