GWaking up early Cin the morning to the sun.

GI’d rather hang out with the Chomeboys than the homegirls
Emthey are the closest to undDerstanding my strange world.
GWe’re always having fun, Cnever does a bummer some.
EmDrunk mumbling, Cstumbling infant of everyone.
GGanja growing in the Csummertime,
it’s no wonder Emwhy the air around me’s always Dsmelling fine.
GLong walks, water parks, Cthrowing parties, shooting darts.
EmOutside night time Dchatting laughing in the dark.
[Chorus]

GOn our way up to the Cmountains on a camping trip.
EmDriver’s so high Dsteering wheel he tightly grips.
GWhole trunk full to Ccarry bare essentials.
