《If The World Had A Front Porch》歌词

[00:00:01] If the world had a front porch - Tracy Lawrence

[00:00:12] It was where my Mama sat on that old swing with her crochet

[00:00:18] It was where Granddaddy taught me how to cuss and how to pray

[00:00:24] It was where we made our own ice cream those sultry summer nights

[00:00:30] Where the bulldog had her puppies and us brothers had our fights

[00:00:36] There were many nights I'd sit right there and look out at the stars

[00:00:42] To the sound of a distant whippoorwill or the hum of a passing car

[00:00:48] It was where I first got up the nerve to steal me my first kiss

[00:00:53] And it was where I learned to play guitar and pray I had the gift

[00:00:59] (Chorus)

[00:00:59] If the world had a front porch like we did back then

[00:01:06] We'd still have our problems but we'd all be friends

[00:01:11] Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin

[00:01:18] Wouldn't be gone with the wind

[00:01:22] If the world had a front porch like we did back then

[00:01:34] Purple hulls and pintos I've shelled more than my share

[00:01:39] As lightening bugs and crickets danced in the evening air

[00:01:45] And like a beacon that old yellow bulb it always led me home

[00:01:52] Somehow Mama always knew just when to leave it on

[00:01:56] If the world had a front porch like we did back then

[00:02:03] We'd still have our problems but we'd all be friends

[00:02:09] Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin

[00:02:15] Wouldn't be gone with the wind

[00:02:21] If the world had a front porch like we did back then

[00:02:28] Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin

[00:02:34] Wouldn't be gone with the wind

[00:02:41] If the world had a front porch like we did back then
