| I remember mama swinging that screen door open bringing a cold glass of sweet |
| tea for daddy’s hand |
| A hard day’s work and family restin', me and him and brother gettin' hungry for |
| what’s cookin' in mama’s pan |
| After supper out there pickin' singin' hymns into the night. |
| that’s the kind of |
| simple livin' I’ve been chasin' all my life |
| There ain’t nothin' any better than love, faith and family together in this |
| world of crazy weather — it’s the safest place to ride out any storm — |
| Got to get back to the front porch |
| I remember lookin' back seein' daddy wave as I was leavin', that «lord, |
| help him» tear in mama’s eyes. |
| I went from climbin' trees to climbin' ladders, |
| tryin' to shine, tryin' to matter, only left me less than satisfied. |
| Now I don’t have a front porch like my mom and daddy did and I’m finding it’s a |
| way of life no matter where you live. |
| (Repeat chorus) x2 |
| Got to get back to the front porch |
| I’m gonna sing, I’m gonna smile |
| Gonna rest for a little while |
| Gotta get back to the front porch |
| Got to get back to the front porch |
| I’m gonna sing, I’m gonna smile |
| Gonna rest for a little while |
| Gotta get back to the front porch |
| Not gonna worry anymore |
| Have a talk with my lord |
| Got to get back to the front porch |
| Hold my wife and show my kids |
| This is the only way to live |
| Got to get back to the front porch |
| Back to the front porch |
