Lyrics

ON THE FRONT PORCH
(J. Carroll)

Once again I'm stepping up to the plate
Strike one
I can't remember what I had to do today
Right on

Think I'll make an iced tea, and ponder
What's in it for me, I wonder

On the front porch
Nobody knows you're a little down
Sitting counting the cars headed into town
'Cause it's a catbird seat on the side of the road
Where you can wave to people you might never know
And let the sun shine on your your feet
On the front porch

She had to absolutely know where she stood
With me
I told that she's getting everything that's good
For free

She jumped outa her chair and hollered
Come on Daddy, play fair
And gimme ten dollars

On the front porch
Nobody knows you're a little down
Sitting counting the cars heading into town
'Cause it's a catbird on the side of the road
I'm gonna wave to people I might never know
And let the sun shine on my feet
On the front porch

Think I'll make an iced tea, and ponder
Is something in it for me, I wonder...

On the front porch
Nobody knows I'm a little down
I'm sitting counting the cars heading into town
'Cause it's a catbird on the side of the road
I'm gonna wave to people I might never know
And let the sun shine on my feet
On the front porch

'Cause it's a catbird on the side of the road
I'll wave goodbye to people I might never know
And let the sun shine on my feet
On the front porch
