  • Got a little shade, got a little sun
    Got a long list of things to get done
    Too bad
    So sad

    Got a little swing out on the porch
    Old dog pantin' by the screen door
    Wants to play catch
    Go fetch

    I got you here next to me
    Head on my shoulder, hand on my knee
    Tell me, girl, how am I supposed to leave
    When you're lookin' like that?

    Oh, I keep thinkin' I might stay here
    By your side and watch the green grass grow
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    I got places to be, people I need to see
    Girl, I really should go

    But don't mind if I don't
    (Don't, don't mind)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't
    (Don't mind if I don't)

    Got a little job, got a little box
    Come tomorrow mornin', you will be ticked off
    But that's alright
    It ain't your first time

    Got mail in the mailbox spillin' in the ditch
    It's nothin' but bills and we ain't rich
    So they'll have to wait
    Probably already late

    I got you here next to me
    Rubbin' up against me in your cut-off jeans
    Tell me, baby, how am I supposed to leave
    When you're lookin' that way?

    Hey, hey, I keep thinkin' I might stay here
    By your side and watch the green grass grow
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    I got places to be, people I need to see
    Girl, I really should go

    But don't mind if I don't
    (I don't mind if you don't)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't
    (Yeah, I don't mind if you don't)

    Fence needs fixin', yard needs mowin'
    (Yard needs mowin')
    Hear the cell phone ringin', should I pick it up?

    Don't mind if I don't
    Hope you don't mind if I don't

    Don't, don't mind if I don't
    (Don't do nothin' but sip sweet tea)
    (Thinkin' if she's lookin' back at me)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't

    Don't, don't mind if I don't
    (Don't do nothin' I'm supposed to do)
    (Maybe later break out the inflatable pool)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't
    (Sippin' somethin' wild for an hour)
    Don't, don't mind if I don't

    (Two, three, four)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't
    (Baby, all day long)

    Don't mind if I don't
    (I don't mind, you don't mind)
    (She don't mind, he don't mind)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't

    (I don't mind, you don't mind)
    (She don't mind, he don't mind)
    Don't mind if I don't
    (I don't mind, you don't mind)
    (She don't mind, he don't mind)
    Hope you don't mind if I don't

    I don't mind, you don't mind
    She don't mind, he don't mind
    I don't mind, you don't mind
    She don't mind, he don't mind
    I don't mind, you don't mind
    She don't mind, he don't mind

    Got a little shade, got a little sun
    Got a long list of things to get done
