Mama used to love to reminisce
She'd sit out on the porch on nights like this
She'd tell me about her favorite things in life
Like honeysuckle, rain, and fireflies
Out on that old porch swing
I learned everything
How to laugh and how to love
And who I am and who's up above
And everything in between
Out on that old porch swing
16 summertime and Friday
night
My daddy's guitar, couple cokes
and all the guys
The hours passed like
cars through midnight air
The first tunes that I ever played were there
Out on that old
porch swing
I played
I played everything
Leonard Skinner, Stevie Ray
Some old Garth Brooks, a little Hank
And everything in between
Out on that old porch swing
And my mind would just go rockin' back and forth
Out on that old porch swing
To the memories I made on my front porch
To the memories I made on my front porch
The first time that I looked into her eyes
She was close enough to press her lips to mine
We were swinging through the night hand in hand
That's where the best chapter in my life began
Out on that old port swing
I had everything
My first love and my first kiss
And what I'd wanted and what I'd missed
Everything in between
Out on that old
And I loved that old
Old
Old
Old
Old
And I missed that old
Old
Port swing
Oh yeah!
Tony Jackson!
Good stuff!
