[Verse 1]
Kindergarten class teacher said, "Pass
Out that box of Crayolas
We're all gonna draw a picture of home
Help us get to know ya"
He drew a big orange sun
Shining down on
[Chorus]
A little red house with a little green tree
A little blue car parked out on the street
Brother with a football, sister with a puppy dog
Mama with a smile and a church dress on
Then he raised his hand
Said, "Teacher I can't draw daddy
Do you have a whiskey colored crayon?"
[Verse 2]
Teacher walked down the hall
Made one call, mama left work early
That picture on the desk made mama a mess
Hearing the rest of the story
She didn't know what to say
But her mascara rained
[Chorus]
On a little red house with a little green tree
A little blue car parked out on the street
Brother with a football, sister with a puppy dog
Mama with a smile and a church dress on
Then he raised his hand
Said, "Teacher I can't draw daddy
Do you have a whiskey colored crayon?"
[Bridge]
He stood up in that circle
Said, "I'm sober seven years
And all because our little boy drew this picture here"
[Chorus]
It's a little red house with a little green tree
A little blue car parked out on the street
Brother with a football, sister with a puppy dog
Mama with a smile and a church dress on
Then he raised his hand
Said, "Teacher I can't draw daddy
Do you have a whiskey colored crayon?"
A whiskey colored crayon
A whiskey colored crayon
