Jessie she stares like a cat with a bird that has fallen and broke its wing
|
Terri she puts on her make-up and wonders what promise the new day will bring
|
Debbie stays home with the baby while I work my hands to the bone
|
Yeah I make a living they do the giving in a house we've been calling home
|
Just a house we've been trying to live in just a place we've been calling our own
|
Me and my wives have been spending our lives in a house we've been calling home
|
|
Jessie's the youngest she always needs answers to questions that I just don't know
|
Terri she can't sit still for a moment she's always in some hurry to go
|
Debbie's been with me the longest we spend most of our time on the phone
|
Talking in rhymes with no reasons in mind for this house we've been calling home
|
Just a house we've been trying to live in...
