| This old house ain’t what it was before
|
| Boarded up windows and an old screen door
|
| Grass has grown up and the roofs falling down
|
| Nobody’s coming around
|
| I laid my life down just to have your love
|
| You just wiped your feet and left me the dust
|
| You never even noticed when you turned to leave
|
| You were walking all over me
|
| Like a welcome mat sitting on the front porch, lady
|
| I’m just waiting around, it’s driving me crazy
|
| Stomped on, dirty, feeling lonely and laid out flat
|
| Like a welcome mat
|
| The paints peeling off that front porch swing
|
| There’s a busted out light and chimes that still ring
|
| A dead potted plant and an old rocking chair
|
| Just a place where you once cared
|
| I laid my life down just to have your love
|
| You just wiped your feet and left me the dust
|
| You never even noticed when you turned to leave
|
| That you were walking all over me
|
| Like a welcome mat sitting on the front porch lady
|
| I’m just waiting around, it’s driving me crazy
|
| Stomped on, dirty, feeling lonely and laid out flat
|
| Like a welcome mat
|
| Seasons changing
|
| Rain will fall
|
| But I’ll still wait ‘til you come home
|
| Like a welcome mat sitting on the front porch lady
|
| I’m just waiting around, it’s driving me crazy
|
| Stomped on, dirty, feeling lonely and laid out flat
|
| Like a welcome mat sitting on the front porch lady
|
| I’m just waiting around, it’s driving me crazy
|
| Stomped on, dirty, feeling lonely and laid out flat
|
| Like a welcome mat
|
| Like a welcome mat
|
| Yeah
|
| Like a welcome mat |
