Porch night şarkı sözleri

On the road with a travelling band Just ain't the life for this average man In hotel rooms or the bus till dawn If it weren't for the money I'd be up and gone There's a house that's sitting on a stretch of land Where the earth is black in the palm of your hand If I had my way that's where I'd be On the front porch sitting, just the family and me CHORUS: But under our porch light That's where I learned to sing and dance through the night Or sit with a country girl and hold her tight Everything was all right Cos no matter how dark, it would shine in the night That's where I learned to love, under our porch light My father was a simple man Life to him had a simple plan You give a full day's work for a full day's wage And when the day is done, you just turn the page In the fields I learned about working hard On Sundays I learned of the grace of God And my mamma taught me how to be a gentle man Cos a curse or swear would find the back of her hand (CHORUS) Life can teach the cold hard facts Like who to trust and how to watch your back But I believe I learned the most by far In the dead of night beneath the moon and stars (CHORUS)
