Atta Boy – Walden Pond lyrics

[Verse 1]
I hope you spend your days
Writing verses on your page
May your life be a Walden Pond swim
Taking showers in the cold
And your glasses filled to their brim

[Verse 2]
And I hope you treat your heart
Real nice and real smart
May your life be a Walden Pond swim
Can't be worthless seeing stars
Buying rocky-road for me and him

[Chorus]
Stay in that water and keep where you're feeling fine but
I'm just the daughter of a man who lives on oak and wine
And I swim like my father
And remember hard days driving miles across county lines

[Verse 3]
And I hope you realize
Why the clouds are always crying
May your life be a Walden Pond dive
Shaking flowers at the ground
While you live the life you did at five

[Verse 4]
And I hope it's testified
For you the best had been denied
May your life be a Walden Pond swim
May you find your love to last
And the times you have are never grim

[Chorus]
Stay in that water and keep where you're feeling fine but
I'm just the daughter of a man who lives on oak and wine
And I swim like my father
And remember good days driving miles across county lines

[Outro] (x2)
I've still got those pictures that I found in a bucket
They're all up on my wall
And I've still got those paintings that you did for my birthday
Way back in the fall
