Screen Door Serenade

Four walls of pine,

a narrow draft (mhmm)

Two windows looking on the gravel path

Got a cracked stove and a single plate

But the roof is holding,

so I can wait

Oh, the pay is lean and the sun is low

(sing it now) But we keep the fire and we let it

grow

We are showing up on the dusty floor

Singing all together

through the old screen door

There is pride in the work,

even when it's hard (yeah) Finding quiet beauty in a narrow yard

The clock keeps ticking,

the gears they turn

But there is a lesson

that you only learn

Oh, the pay is lean and the sun is low

But we keep the fire and we let it grow

We are showing up on the dusty floor

Singing all together

through the old screen door

We are showing up anyway (every single day)

We are showing up anyway

Let the

worry

drift away
