settle on back Songtext
von Jimmie Allen

This ain′t no 9 to 5
This job we doing brought me to your town tonight
Singing about the slower lower way of life
I'ma tell you now it′s more than just a song
When I cross that sussex county line
The ocean air and a beach chair and a welcome sign
Gives me that easy feeling every time
Don't get me wrong I love being with y'all
But when I get home

I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back


I love the neon lights
The crowd, the band, the show, and the fast life
But every now and then I need a peace of mind
A dirt road to a dock
Somewhere we′re making time stop

I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back

Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)
Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)
Settle on back, settle on back (Yeah)
′Cause I don't do it for the dollars no
I just do it for the hollers
Let me hear ya holler


I settle on back with my boys at the pier
And drink a few beers, watch the sun disappear
And chasing that young, never gonna grow up
Never reach the bottom of a solo cup
I settle on back, watch the tide set low
Setting hooks with my shimano fishing pole
Whenever I find them good years rolling way too fast
Yeah, I just settle on back

I settle on back
I just settle on back
Yeah
