Chely Wright - Picket Fences lyrics
[Chely Wright - Picket Fences lyrics]
Big things they're taught at a tender age
Just what life should bring
Get a job, say I do and settle yourself down
But what about those of us whose
Lives are still spinnin' around
Tell me what's so great about picket fences
Paintin' them's such a mess
And a big back yard where kids can play
I'd probably never get a moment's rest
And settin' the table for five at five
Only means more dishes to load
What's so great about picket fences
I guess I'll never know
Here I am in my prime
At least they tell me so
And if I go to sleep at
Night I always go alone
I guess that I could have it
All and someone by my side
But, I can't take the give and take
The price is just too high
Tell me what's so great about picket fences
Paintin' them's such a mess
And a big back yard where kids can play
I'd probably never get a moment's rest
And settin' the table for five at five
Only means more dishes to load
What's so great about picket fences
I guess I'll never know
Tell me what's so great about picket fences
I guess I'll never know
