Tom T. Hall – I Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I love little baby ducks, old pick-up trucks
Slow movin’ trains and rain
I love little country streams, sleep without dreams
Sunday school in May and hay
[Chorus]
And I love you too
[Verse 2]
I love leaves in the wind, pictures of my friends
Birds of the world and squirrels
I love coffee in a cup, little fuzzy pups
Bourbon in a glass and grass
[Chorus]
And I love you too
[Verse 3]
I love honest open smiles, kisses from a child
Tomatoes on the vine and onions
I love winners when they cry, losers when they try
Music when it’s good and life
[Chorus]
And I love you too
GENIUS
