Don't want to read the paper
Or turn on the news
Don't want another helping of the same old blues
Don't want to call nobody
Or answer the phone
What I want is everybody to leave us alone

(chorus)
Let us sit down in the porch swing
Sip a little ice tea
Play with the kids in the yard
Hey it's time to get lazy
Had enough crazy
Life ain't got to be so hard
Oh, life don't have to be so hard

No it don't

Want to stop and smell the roses
I don't want to run
Want to catch up on the talkin that we hadn't done
The only big decision that I want to make
Is do we take this conversation down to the lake

(chorus)
Or do we sit down in the porch swing
Sip a little ice tea
Play with the kids in the yard
Hey it's time to get lazy
Had enough crazy
Life ain't got to be so hard
Oh, life don't have to be so hard

More time with you less time for worry
More slowing down less in a hurry

(chorus)
So we can sit down in the porch swing
Sip a little ice tea
Play with the kids in the yard
Hey its time to get lazy
Had enough crazy
Life ain't got to be so hard
Oh, life don't have to be so hard

No it don't baby
