Helping the kids out of their coats But wait the babies haven't been born Unpacking the bags and setting up And planting lilacs and buttercups But in the meantime, I've got it hard Second floor living without a yard It may be years until the day My dreams will match up with my pay Old dirt road knee deep snow Watching the fire as we grow old I want a man to stick it out and make a home from a rented house And we'll collect the moments one by one I guess that's how the future's done How many acres how much light tucked in the woods and out of sight Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap on a little road barely on the map Old dirt road knee deep snow Watching the fire as we grow old Old dirt road rambling rose Watching the fire as we grow old well I'm sold
I'll answer your comments as soon as I possibly can. Please do come back if you've asked a question. Also, you may comment on any post, no matter how old, and I will see it.
Nan,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great song! I've never heard of this artist, am going to have to Google. :-)
And the words are wonderful:
ReplyDeleteHelping the kids out of their coats
But wait the babies haven't been born
Unpacking the bags and setting up
And planting lilacs and buttercups
But in the meantime, I've got it hard
Second floor living without a yard
It may be years until the day
My dreams will match up with my pay
Old dirt road knee deep snow
Watching the fire as we grow old
I want a man to stick it out and
make a home from a rented house
And we'll collect the moments one by one
I guess that's how the future's done
How many acres how much light tucked
in the woods and out of sight
Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap on
a little road barely on the map
Old dirt road knee deep snow
Watching the fire as we grow old
Old dirt road rambling rose
Watching the fire as we grow old well I'm sold
