Homestands and Church Pews

[Verse 1]
The town shut down on Friday nights
And Sunday mornin's too
One's for the ones under stadium lights
And one's for the one that made me and you
Sometimes we sat down
And other times we stood on up and raised our hands

[Chorus]
We learned when to cheer and when to cry
All the ups and downs and the wrongs and rights
How to pick yourself back up again and push on through
All about the blood, sweat, and the tears
Shed on the cross and on that field
And how it got us where we're at and where we're goin' to
Yeah most of what we know, we owe it all to
Home stands and church pews

[Verse 2]
Don't you quit until that whistle blows
And always remember this
Boots are fine but hats don't go
With anthems and amens

[Chorus]
We learned when to cheer and when to cry
All the ups and downs and the wrongs and rights
How to pick yourself back up again and push on through
All about the blood, sweat, and the tears
Shed on the cross and on that field
And how it got us where we're at and where we're goin' to
Yeah most of what we know, we owe it all to
Home stands and church pews

[Verse 3]
Be swift to hear and slow to speak
And when you get done wrong
You gotta learn to turn the other cheek
Especially in the fall

[Chorus]
We learned when to cheer and when to cry
All the ups and downs and the wrongs and rights
How to pick yourself back up again and push on through
All about the blood, sweat, and the tears
Shed on the cross and on that field
And how it got us where we're at and where we're goin' to
Yeah most of what we know, we owe it all to
And no matter where I go, I'll keep comin' back to
Home stands and church pews
