Curly-head babies running wild in the yard
Catching fireflies while the day goes dark
Dog on the front porch dreaming 'bout a rabbit
Halfway working through a six-pack habit
Porch swing kissing on the love of my life
Just wishing for once that I could take tonight and

Bottle it up, put it away
Bottle it up for a rainy day
Bottle it up for when the clouds roll in
I'd sipping this summer on ice again
Yeah, it tastes so sweet, and it feels so good
I know I can't but, buddy, if I could
I'd bottle it up
Bottle it up

Guitar
Huh-ha

Life ain't no big riddle
Just Heaven and the devil and the people in the middle
Time just keeps on ticking
Every now and then, take a blessing you'rе given and

Bottle it up, put it away
Bottle it up for a rainy day
Bottlе it up for when the clouds roll in
I'd sipping this summer on ice again
Yeah, it tastes so sweet, and it feels so good
I know I can't but, buddy, if I could
I'd bottle it up
Bottle it up

I'd pull it off the shelf and blow off the dust
I'd be a millionaire if I could sell this stuff
Bottle it up
I need to bottle it up
Wish I could bottle it up
Yeah, bottle it up
