Paw-paw always said we were money poor and dirt rich
I never truly understood what that really meant
Looking out this penthouse view from forty stories high
I’d give it all away if I could just get back
To those Acres of Sunshine
If I could just get back
It was so much more than some old farm passed down the family line
That deep black soil my mamma turned is planted in my mind
Growing love in the country was just an old pastime
I’d give it all away if could just get back
To those acres of sunshine
Watch the moon rise and the sun go down
Hand and hand at the same time
Sitting on a rock with a six string and a song
Under the open sky
I’d give it all away if I could just get back
To those acres of sunshine
If I could just get back
If I could just get back
I’d give it all away if I could just get back
Oh you know what I’m talkin’ about
Let’s get back to something real
When it comes to dollars I can spend em’ just like the rest
But all the money in the world won't buy me happiness
That home in the holler is where my heart pines
You know I’d give it all away if I could just get back
To those acres of sunshine
Acres of sunshine
Acres of sunshine
If I could just get back
If I could just get back
Paw-paw always said we were money poor and dirt rich
Now I understand what he really meant
