I grew up in a small town, 10 minutes from the beachMoved on up to Asheville, the year I turned thirteenI walked the halls of Reynolds High, man I sure loved high schoolAnd ended up in Chapel Hill wearing Carolina BlueIt’s the sunrise on another day over my hometownIt’s the smile there on my mama’s face cooking dinner at the houseIts hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truckI ain’t rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucksI still rock that gold belt buckle my dad got me sophomore yearI’ve got the world’s 2 greatest brothers and we can sure throw back some beersI helped Jimmie win a couple rings on that old Lowe’s Kobalt ChevyAnd grabbed my guitar and one big dream and moved on to music cityIt’s the sunrise on another day over my hometownIt’s the smile there on my mama’s face cooking dinner at the houseIts hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truckI ain’t rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucksSo heres to all my buddies and the ones I ain’t met yetI don’t need a lot of money to make me a happy manSome might call it crazy, some might call it luckBut I just call it my life and it beats a million bucksIt’s the sunrise on another day over my hometownIt’s the smile there on my mama’s face cooking dinner at the houseIts hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truckI ain’t rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucksyeah it beats a million bucks
