CHORUS

LET’S PUT THE FRONT PORCH BACK IN THE MUSIC PLUG INTO THE POWER OF THE MOON
WITH A WASHBOARD JUG AND A TUB BASS FIDDLE PLAYIN’ JUST A LITTLE OUT OF TUNE
PICKIN’ BRONZE ON WOOD IS IT GONE FOR GOOD I WANT TO LISTEN TO A FLAT TOP STRUM
LET’S PUT THE FRONT PORCH BACK IN THE MUSIC ‘CAUSE THAT’S WHERE IT ALL CAME FROM

VERSE

ITS GENUINE AMERICAN AND BORN ON A FRONT PORCH SWING
IT HELPED OUR FOLKS FORGET WHEN TIMES WERE ROUGH
GRANDPA ROCKED AND ROLLED HIS EYES WHILE GRANDMA TRIED TO SING
SHE HAD A VOICE THAT ONLY HE COULD LOVE

THE BANJO’S GRINNED WHILE MANDOLIN’S AND KINFOLK KEPT THE BEAT
SLIGHTLY OUT OF TIME BUT NO ONE KNEW
JUST PLAYIN’ TO PLEASE EACH OTHER AND THE ONLY THING AS SWEET
WAS THE CIDER THEY ALL SHARED WHEN THEY WERE THROUGH

CHORUS

LET’S PUT THE FRONT PORCH BACK IN THE MUSIC PLUG INTO THE POWER OF THE MOON
WITH A WASHBOARD JUG AND A TUB BASS FIDDLE PLAYIN’ JUST A LITTLE OUT OF TUNE
PICKIN’ BRONZE ON WOOD IS IT GONE FOR GOOD I WANT TO LISTEN TO A FLAT TOP STRUM
LET’S PUT THE FRONT PORCH BACK IN THE MUSIC ‘CAUSE THAT’S WHERE IT ALL CAME FROM
