I grew up in a small town, 10 minutes from the beach Moved on up to Asheville, the year I turned thirteen I walked the halls of Reynolds High, man I sure loved high school And ended up in Chapel Hill wearing Carolina Blue It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown It's the smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house Its hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucks I still rock that gold belt buckle my dad got me sophomore year I've got the world's 2 greatest brothers and we can sure throw back some beers I helped Jimmie win a couple rings on that old Lowe's Kobalt Chevy And grabbed my guitar and one big dream and moved on to music city It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown It's the smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house Its hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucks So heres to all my buddies and the ones I ain't met yet I don't need a lot of money to make me a happy man Some might call it crazy, some might call it luck But I just call it my life and it beats a million bucks It's the sunrise on another day over my hometown It's the smile there on my mama's face cooking dinner at the house Its hearing my song on the radio with my best friends in my truck I ain't rich, but I sure got enough, and it beats a million bucks Yeah it beats a million bucks
