Been around the whole world, still ain't seen Nothin' like my neighborhood And of all the fancy satin and silk My white cotton feels so good

Searched high and low for a place Where I can lay my burdens down Ain't nothin' in the whole wide world Like the piece that I have found

(It's the little things) It's the little things And the joy they bring (The little things) It's the little things And joy they bring

As simple as a phone call just to make it known That you're gonna be a little late Pure as a kiss on a cheek in a word That everything will be okay

Call in the mornin' from my little sister Singin' to me, "Happy Birthday" In the quest for fortune and fame Don't forget about the simple things

(It's the little things) It's the little things And the joy they bring, yeah (The little things) It's the little things And joy

Give me some roomful, give me seclusion Give me some peace of mind Bring me some sunshine, bring me some blue sky

Runnin' 'round in circles, lost my focus Lost sight of my goal I do this for the love of music Not for the glitter and gold

Got everything that I pray for Even a little more When I ask to learn humility This is what I was told

(It's the little things) It's the little things And the joy they bring, it's the little things (The little things) It's the little things Oh...hee...

Give me my guitar, bring me a bright star Give me some good news, give me some cute shoes Give me Atlanta, give me Savannah give me my peace of mind

Give me some Stevie, give me some Donny Give me my daddy, give me my mommy Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey and a little Hollywood
