Lyrics:

Lucinda Jones workin' at the IHOP
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs an' tears
She's waited on every creed an' color
While waitin' on this day to get here.

Graveyard shifts, two big tips
Makin' every quarter count
Was worth it all to see her son
In that cap an' gown.

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip an' fall
When you can't lean on no-one else
That's when you find yourself
I've been around an' I've noticed that
Walkin's easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
So we could learn how to climb.

Private Bobby Dunn came back from the war
Lost his leg but they couldn't take his will
Hell bent to run in that local marathon
He trained through the endless pain an' pills.

It hurt so bad that sometimes
He just had to cry
He didn't stop until he crossed
That finish line.

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip an' fall
When you can't lean on no-one else
That's when you find yourself
I've been around an' I've noticed that
Walkin's easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
So we could learn how to climb.

This world ain't fair
It can knock you on your butt
You can just lie there
Or you can get back up
You gotta get back up.

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip an' fall
When you can't lean on no-one else
That's when you find yourself
I've been around an' I've noticed that
Walkin's easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
(The good Lord gave us mountains)
So we could learn how to climb.

Yeah, oh...

Lyrics:

Yeah, oh yeah
The only ground I ever owned was sticking to my shoes
Now I look out my front porch at this panoramic view
I can sit and watch the fields fill up with rays of golden sun
Or watch the moon lay on the fences like that's where it was hung
My blessin's aren't in front of me, it's not about the land
I'll never beat the view from my front porch lookin' in.

Chorus:
There's a carrot-top that can barely walk with a sippy cup of milk
A little blue-eyed blonde with shoes on wrong 'cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah, the view I love the most is my front porch looking in. yeah, yeah

I've traveled here and everywhere followin' my job
I've seen the paintings from the air, brushed by the hand of God
The mountains and the canyons reach from sea to shining sea
But I can't wait to get back home to the one He made for me
'Cause anywhere I'll ever go and anywhere I've been
Nothin' takes my breath away like my front porch looking in.

Chorus:
There's a carrot-top that can barely walk with a sippy cup of milk
A little blue-eyed blonde with shoes on wrong 'cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah, the view I love the most is my front porch looking in.

I see what beautiful is about
When I'm looking in, not when I'm looking out.

Chorus:
There's a carrot-top that can barely walk with a sippy cup of milk
A little blue-eyed blonde with shoes on wrong 'cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah, the view I love the most.

Oh, the view I love the most is my front porch looking in.
Yeah, yeah

Oh, that's a carrot-top that can barely walk
(From my front porch looking in)
A little blue-eyed blonde with her shoes on wrong
(From my front porch looking in)
And the most beautiful girl is holding both of them
Oh yeah...

Lyrics:

The sign in the window said for sale or trade
On the last remaining dinosaur Detroit made
Seven hundred dollars was a heck of a deal
For a four hundred horsepower jukebox on wheels

And that road rolls out like a welcome mat
I don't know where it goes but it beats where we're at
We always said someday,somehow
We were gonna get away,gonna blow this town

chrous
What about now,how 'bout tonight
Baby for once let's don't think twice
Let's take that spin that never ends
That we've been talking about
What about now,why should we wait
We can chase these dreams down the interstate
And be long gone 'fore the world moves on and makes another round
What about now

We've been puttin' this off baby long enough
Just give me the word,and we'll be kickin' up dust
We both know it's just a matter of time
'Til our hearts start racin' for that county line

chrous

We could hang around this town forever making plans
But there won't ever  be a better time to take this chance

chrous

Yeah! Oh!
What about noooooow
