When I was a boy,
There was a pretty little girl livin' in the house next door.
Well, all she wanted dwas some lightning bugs,
But I wanted a little bit more.
So, every evenin' when the sun went down,
We'd go where there weren't no cars.
She'd fill it up, and I'd watch her smile.
There's a lot you can do with a mason jar.
It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again.
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard.
'Cause there's a lot you can do with a mason jar.
A few years went by, and I grew up.
At least that's what I thought.
Started gettin' into somethin' hppie friends do,
It's funny, but it made me cough.
When daddy got wind of what I'd been doin',
I hid it in a stump in the yard.
He turned that house inside and out,
But there's a lot you can do with a mason jar.
It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again.
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard.
'Cause there's a lot you can do with a mason jar.
Now, I've been married ten years to the girl next door,
And we spend most our evenings on the porch.
Iced tea is all I put in this glass
That the kids use to catch fireflies in the yard.
Aw, it's true.
There's a lot you can do with a mason jar.
It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again.
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard.
'Cause there's a lot you cna do with a mason jar.
With a mason jar.
