That's One I'll Keep

Wading knee deep in the Nickel Jack River
Soft mud squeezing up between my toes
A big mouth jumpin' on a split tail bobber
We’d cook’em up later after we got home
And my brother was there, and my daddy was there
He let us go swimming in our underwear
Now looking back I see
Just what that meant to me
I’ll bottle my memories
I think that’s one I’ll keep
Last summer Sunday on that front porch shucking
Purple hull peas till our fingers turned black
Taking turns cranking up that ice cream maker
Gettin' brain freeze because we ate too fast
My grandpa was there, yeah my nana was there
Sitting there rockin' in her favorite chair
Now looking back I see
Just what that meant to me
I’ll bottle my memories
I think that’s one I’ll keep
Little country church with a Baptist preacher
Watching your daddy walk you down the aisle
I’m placing that ring on your left hand finger
Pulling back the veil and seeing you smile
And my future was there, love sure was there
We were heading off on a wing and a prayer
Now looking back I see
Just what that meant to me
I’ll bottle my memories
I’ll bottle my memories
I think that’s one I’ll keep
I think that’s one I’ll keep
