Fixer Upper

There’s an old house
Down on Ramsey Drive
On the edge of town
With a new for sale sign
A brand new family
Unloading the truck
That single story
Is full of stories of us

See I grew up there
Three generations strong
Had my first beer
In grandpa’s garage
A lot of wisdom
In that 1200 square feet
It’s not the company you work for
It’s the company you keep

There in that fixer upper
Where grandma fixed us supper
Broke bread around the table
Making memories
That front porch and those four walls
Were built on love the foundations strong
To some it’s just an old house on the street
But it’s still home to me
It’s home to me

They’ll hang some pictures
Down the newly painted halls
Replace the hardwood
Where I first learned to crawl
Do what they’ve got too
To make it what they need
Like that live oak in the front yard
The roots run deep

There in that fixer upper
Where grandma fixed us supper
Broke bread around the table
Making memories
That front porch and those four walls
Were built on love the foundations strong
To some it’s just an old house on the street
But it’s still home to me

I didn’t know how good we had it
Back when we had it
But we had it all
I wish I knew how good we had it
Back when we had it
But now it’s gone

There in that fixer upper
Where grandma fixed us supper
Broke bread around the table
Made some memories
That front porch and those four walls
Were built on love the foundations strong
To some it’s just an old house on the street
It might not look like much to you
But it’s still home to me
It’s home to me
It’s home
It’s home to me
