  • Use every crayon color that you've got
    A fishing pole sinks faster than a tackle box
    Nothing turns a day around like licking a mixing bowl
    I learned that from a three year old

    A garbage can is a damn good spot to hide truck keys
    Why go inside when you can go behind a tree?
    Walking barefoot through the mud will knock the rust
    right off your soul
    I learned that from a three year old

    You can be a cowboy on the moon
    Dig to China with a spoon
    Talk to Jesus on the phone
    Say I love you all day long
    And when you're wrong, you should just say so
    I learned that from a three year old

    Mama is an angel, I heard him tell the man upstairs
    He went on and on and back and forth like God was laying there
    Tonight, I sleep me down to lay and pray to keep my soul
    Yeah, I learned that from a three year old

    You can be a cowboy on the moon
    Dig to China with a spoon
    Talk to Jesus on the phone
    Say I love you all day long
    And when you're wrong, you should just say so
    I learned that from a three year old

    Sometimes, all you need is a hand to hold
    Couple arms to kill the cold
    And when I'm wrong, I should just say so
    I learned that from a three year old
    Yeah, honey, I learned that from our three year old Writer/s: Eric Church
