In This House

In this house, we've got pictures down the halls

We've got markings on the walls

Of what a year can do, how much you grew

We have some rules

In this house, we pray before we eat

Say "I love you" before we sleep

And watch football after Sunday service

It's more than bricks and bones, yeah

With a wraparound porch, yeah

Behind that front door's where it all started

In this house we live in

We all give forgiveness

Try our best but we still fall sometimes, yeah

No, it ain't always sunshine

But it's a beautiful ride

Got a million memories only you can find, yeah

On a quarter-acre corner lot

Ain't gotta knock, the door's unlocked

No, there ain't no place like home

In this house

Oh, in this house

In this house, these hardwoods love to talk

They all creak when you walk

And that kitchen table's still tough and able

Two feet is all

In this house, we live by country music

We might fight but we get through it

All I'm sayin' is we're strong as that foundation

In this house we live in

We all give forgiveness

Try our best but we still fall sometimes, yeah

No, it ain't always sunshine

But it's a beautiful ride

Got a million memories only you can find, yeah

On a quarter-acre corner lot

Ain't gotta knock, the door's unlocked

No, there ain't no place like home

In this house

Oh, in this house

It's more than bricks and bones, yeah

With a wraparound porch, yeah

Behind that front door's where it all started

In this house we live in

We all give forgiveness

Try our best but we still fall sometimes, yeah

No, it ain't always sunshine

But it's a beautiful ride

Got a million memories only you can find, yeah

On a quarter-acre corner lot

Ain't gotta knock, the door's unlocked

No, there ain't no place like home
