Front Porch Thing

[Chorus]

Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

My baby's got a song to sing

While the crickets and the train whistle harmonize

Doing that front-porch thing

Clanging and a-banging out a feel-good tune

Strumming on my old 6-string

Sure can kill these country blues

Doing that front-porch thing

[Verse 1]

Work's been slow, money's been tight

But that's alright, honey, that's alright

Sometimes you won't, but sometimes you will

And when she do what she do, it's a doggone thrill

[Chorus]

Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

My baby's got a song to sing

While the crickets and the train whistle harmonize

Doing that front-porch thing

Clanging and a-banging out a feel-good tune

Strumming on my old 6-string

Sure can kill these country blues

Doing that front-porch thing

[Verse 2]

When the moon comes up, we sit down

And the chains start creaking, making swinging sounds

Fall in love all over again

Having so much fun, it ought to be a sin

[Chorus]

Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

My baby's got a song to sing

While the crickets and the train whistle harmonize

Doing that front-porch thing

Clanging and a-banging out a feel-good tune

Strumming on my old 6-string

Sure can kill these country blues

Doing that front-porch thing

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

My baby's got a song to sing

While the crickets and the train whistle harmonize

Doing that front-porch thing

We're clanging and a-banging out a feel-good tune

Strumming on my old 6-string

Sure can kill these country blues

Doing that front-porch thing

[Outro]

When we're doing that front-porch thing

When we're doing that front-porch thing

Doing that front-porch thing
