River House Rules (έκδοση 2)

Verse

River water still got a hold on my boots

Screen door sticks like it don't want to lose us

Squirrel's chatterin' where the old oak tree bends

Same ol' gravel road that never lets you down

Mama said leave the porch light on tonight

Daddy's truck keys on the kitchen counter, same as always

Pre-Chorus

So what's a kid supposed to do in a place like this

When every summer feels like it won't quit

Chorus

We're livin' by river house rules — no clocks, no names

Just us and water and these porch swings again

Every year the current pulls us back home

River house rules are all we need to know

Verse 2

Nephew's got a new bike with training wheels loose

Sister's laughin' so loud it wakes up the whole house

I caught a crawdad in my bare hands by the dock

Mama said don't you ever let that little spark go

Daddy's out on his boat, waves him back to shore

Some summers just feel like they're asking for more

Pre-Chorus

So what's a kid supposed to do in a place like this

When every summer feels like it won't quit

Chorus

We're livin' by river house rules — no clocks, no names

Just us and water and these porch swings again

Every year the current pulls us back home

River house rules are all we need to know

Bridge

One day I'll drive this road in silver, not gold

Might look down at this stretch of gravel and be told

It's small now compared to what the world has got

But river don't care how old you get or not

Chorus

We're livin' by river house rules — no clocks, no names

Just us and water and these porch swings again

Every year the current pulls us back home

River house rules are all we need to know
