Lyrics:
House painted white, yard growing green
Nice front porch to put a swing
It always felt so out of reach
Till the day it was ours to keep
All moved in by the end of spring
Bought a mower, pulled up the weeds
The walls could use a new coat of paint
Couldn't choose a color so they're still gray
Built in 1951
Kinda like a song, its never quite done
Something's gonna break we'll have to fix again
But ain't that the truth on how to
Love and live
Shot a nail through a water line
Two weeks in and right on time
Tore down the wall to patch it up
We found termites eating away the studs
Summer in Texas can sure kill a yard
Put the AC bill on a credit card
Well if its not one thing, it's another I know
30 more years down this road
Built in 1951
Kinda like a song, its never quite done
Something's gonna break we'll have to fix again
But ain't that the truth on how to
Love and live
Built in 1951
Kinda like a song, its never quite done
Something's gonna break we'll have to fix again
But ain't that the truth on how to
Love and live
Argue about the dishes, please turn out the lights
Who left the cat outside all night
I love you very much but don't like you right now
I don't need you to show me, I already know how
In and out of each other's way
Sleepless nights and restless days
I still wouldn't trade it for anything else
Teaches you more than any book on a shelf
Built in 1951
Kinda like a song, its never quite done
Something's gonna break we'll have to fix again
But ain't that the truth on how to
Love and live
