The Shade
Written by - Troy Jones & Shane Decker
I don't want a fast car
Don't need a four lane highway
There's not another place I'd rather be
'Cause out here in the country
Bluebirds sing for nothin'
And the shade comes free with the tree
Yeah, the shade comes free with the tree

The tree came with a mountain
Right beside the river
Where the ground makes one heck of a seat
The mountain counts for somethin'
The view is worth a fortune
And the shade comes free with the tree

Chorus:
I never had a dollar
That could buy me what I'm feelin'
And I'm feelin' 'bout as good as I can be
I need to be reminded
When I'm lookin' for a bargain
Not to overlook what's right in front of me

I'll never make a killin'
Tryin' to make a livin'
But I make enough to raise a family
And I bought a piece of Heaven
Off County Road 11
Where the shade comes free with the tree
Yeah, where the shade comes free with the tree

Chorus

I don't want a fast car
Don't need a four-lane highway
There's not another place I'd rather be
Down County Road 11
There's this little piece of Heaven
Where the shade comes free with the tree
Where the shade comes free with the tree
Yeah, the shade comes free with the tree
