lyrics

Sittin on the front porch in my own pers’nal heaven
Listenin to my uncles count five six seven
As we all join together and sing gram’s favorite song
The one about flying away when life’s troubles are too strong

And we danced around the field shedding hair pins like a dog
And we sang the songs that made us feel like we’d never grow old
And we held our hands and raised our heads and said to no one at all
God bless our sweet petunia’s and heaven save us all

I remember the first time that I joined in the band
I sang a song with just one chord but everybody still gave a hand
Mom and dad they both we’re lookin so proud
Even though I messed and my strumming was to loud

And we danced around the field shedding hair pins like a dog
And we sang the songs that made us feel like we’d never grow old
And we held our hands and raised our heads and said to no one at all
God bless our sweet petunia’s and heaven save us all
