Looking at the houses with screened in porches You said the skeeters wouldn’t bite us if we had one Driving out of town to get coffee milk and chocolate A little lagniappe for the way back home The way back home Climbing to the top of Elephant Rock You said to watch out for the cougars and the lightning Running from waves as the storm rolled in Our shoes filled with sand on the way back home The way back home There will be a day when we’re together again And I will own a house with a fruit tree We’ll sit outside drinking lemonade After we found our way back home The way back home The way back home The way back home
