Rascal Flatts Mayberry Lyrics

[@justint984]

"Sunday was a day of rest, now it's a day for progress" Please slow down and have a day with your family. You never know when it's going to be your last.

[@mikeblalock4116]

True, but honestly Saturday is the lord's day when one should rest, and relax with family. Sunday is the first day, not the seventh.

[@shelbyhecox]

@@mikeblalock4116 Sunday is the lords day Saturday is rest day

[@mikeblalock4116]

In the Jewish religion Saturday is the Sabbath or the day of rest. Christianity adapted their "lord's day" to avoid persecution in the early days of the religion. As I understand it through my studies anyhow.

When you see the way America's society is going it really makes you appreciate songs like this.

[@thenightmaricsenpai524]

Depends on what you mean. If you're talking about the popularity of liberal ideals, then no. If you're talking about the rise of religious extremism by Evandical and alt-right extremist groups, then yes

[@takedown205productions6]

@@thenightmaricsenpai524 Why even bring politics into it? If anything, i'd compare today's music (I.E. Rap and Kpop) to crap. It's songs like this that bring nostalgia to the people who like quality music.

This song in particular takes me back to the six months I spent living as an exchange student in the US in 2004. It was my first trip there (but not to the North American continent though) and it was a very exciting time and a first time for quite a number of things. First time really listening to country music. First time I ever owned a car. First time I ever got pulled over by the police while driving (because someone had stolen my rear license plate, and to my surprise they were very helpful and courteous). First (and last) time ever holding a checking account and checkbook (these were already long gone in my home country). Listening to this music just added an extra dimension to the whole experience, and you sometimes wish you could do it all over again.

That is a life I dreamed of. I wish I had a porch on my cottage. Sitting on my porch sippin a Coke with the love.of my life. A truly simplified life. The only thing I really need is Him sitting next to me in a rocking chair. My dream before I die. Sundays should be a day of rest. Church and rest.

I finally got my dream come true seeing them in concert and it was the best show ive ever seen put on 💚

[@JessasDiaryDays]

The first and only concert I've ever been to is Rascal Flatts. It was a present for my 14th birthday from my dad. I loved watching them perform because I've loved them since I was a little girl. I even sang one of their songs for my 5th grade talent show.

My,my. I remember listening to this song when I was about 4. Me and my mom would listen to this song all the time. This was when I lived in Owasso,OK, now I live in some boring town with boring people. I'm 15 now and just thinking about the times listening to this song back in the day makes me almost cry. This song is truly one that will never be forgotten....

[@SpicePrincess1890]

Man... I discovered Rascal Flatts in 2006, when I was in 6th grade, thanks to Cars.. I was obsessed with that movie lol Anyway, listening to these early Rascal Flatts reminds me of being 12 and 13, being obsessed with National Treasure, Cars, and Meet the Robinsons, middle school, and just growing up.. it's such a nostalgic feeling. I'm about to be 21 in April and everytime I hear these songs I'm back in time, drawing fanart and rocking out to Rascal Flatts.

[@gma4alex]

+RunRobotRun911 I feel you,I miss the old days where I JUST found this amazing song,I miss my old childhood friends, we would play every day,then,we moved,I cried and cried,because I realized,I would never be able to see my two best friends ever again ;-; I still miss them

[@tylerg6829]

it's weird, I listened to songs like this with my family out camping, and I live in a smaller town, but these songs really are good for the heart and mind aren't they? You're the only other 15 year old that I've heard listen to this besides me.

[@pricegenealogy]

Mayberry is typical of all that America used to stand for. Today’s TV is a far cry from the sweet and simple rural days of Mayberry. Now that he's gone, we can see how much we needed that soft-spoken, kindhearted character that Andy Griffith portrayed. Andy Griffith and Mayberry will still be there when all the modern fads and fancies are all gone.

I don't like country music very much, but this is one of the only few songs from modern country music that I really like. With more time going by year after year, this song is a classic now. Not only that, when he sings, "bye, bye", the music strikes a chord with the chorus playing a really nostalgic harmony behind it, and it's like a joyful and nostalgic sound from the true, happy modern country music.

When you realize all your best moments are gone,you can only remember...I miss when I was a little kid,playing with my friends,I miss them so much ;-;,I wish I could run away from this crazy life of mine,away with my childhood friends,I miss the old days,when you could go and enjoy this beautiful world,but now,it's like every thing just faded away,like our good memories just slipped out of our reach,I have a saying,People are like stained glass, they sparkle and shine when the sun is out,but right when the sun stops shining,they are lifeless and dull,until their light shines from within,if we work together,we can make this world beautiful like it was in the old days,like if you agree

I have respect for Rascal Flatts singing, playing and performing. Songs like what hurts the most and their rendition of life is a highway, but I was sitting on the public transit after work and the driver was playing her MP3 player over the speaker and this song came on, and I was thinking, this song isn't any good. A song could be stepped up and rewritten by 3 members before being released, but based on past performance like the songs above, this gets put into heavy radio rotation and MP3 sales. I hate struggling to find my own place in the landscape because I put so much effort into it, and then you hear something like this and say why this song, why not mine?
