Little Things
 
  Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Been around the whole world, still ain’t seen
Nothin’ like my neighborhood
And of all the fancy satin and silk
My white cotton feels so good

Searched high and low for a place
Where I can lay my burdens down
Ain’t nothin’ in the whole wide world
Like the piece that I have found

(it’s the little things) it’s the little things
And the joy they bring
(the little things) it’s the little things
And joy they bring

As simple as a phone call just to make it known
That you’re gonna be a little late
Pure as a kiss on a cheek in a word
That everything will be okay

Call in the mornin’ from my little sister
Singin’ to me, happy birthday
In the quest for fortune and fame
Don’t forget about the simple things

(it’s the little things) it’s the little things
And the joy they bring, yeah
(the little things) it’s the little things
And joy

Give me some roomful, give me seclusion
Give me some peace of mind
Bring me some sunshine, bring me some blue sky

Runnin’ ’round in circles, lost my focus
Lost sight of my goal
I do this for the love of music
Not for the glitter and gold

Got everything that I pray for
Even a little more
When I ask to learn humility
This is what I was told

(it’s the little things) it’s the little things
And the joy they bring, it’s the little things
(the little things) it’s the little things
Oh...hee...

Give me my guitar, bring me a bright star
Give me new clothes, give me some cute shoes
Give me a ladder, give me some matter
Bring me my peace of mind

Give me some stevie, give me some donny
Give me my daddy, give me my mommy
Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey
I don’t need no hollywood
