Lyrics
[Verse]
Barefoot kids on the mountain line
Cabbage fields on the coal miner's time
Kin by my side under the bright blue sky
Chasing jack rabbits just trying to get by
[Verse 2]
Grandpa's hands making fish hooks strong
Mountain water flowing in a song
Everywhere I look the spirit shines
Simple living the heart of this life
[Chorus]
Never leaving this heaven so dear
Rich in love with nothing to fear
No need for riches that money brings
Boxes of honey our simple things
[Verse 3]
Even without a car we travel far
Dancing in starlight twinkles like sparks
Stories whispered by the old pine tree
Memory treasures as tall as can be
[Bridge]
We find gold in the working hands
Dusty roads and unplanned schemes
Life in the hills under the clear blue sky
breath in God's fresh air
These simple riches beyond compare
[Final Chorus]
Never leaving this heaven so dear
Rich in love with nothing to fear
No need for riches that money brings
Boxes of honey our simple things
