That's Why God Made A Front Porch
Craig Campbell, Lee Thomas Miller)
A young boy needs a place to sit and wait
Cause she ainât ever ready for the date
That girlâs daddy needs a quiet spot
To tell that boy the whatâs and what nots
Someday soon heâs gonna bring her home
Theyâll sit on the swing with that light bulb on
Heâll reach in the pocket of his ole blue jeans
Pull out a ring, get down on one knee
Chorus:
Thatâs why god made a front porch
Put a little creak in the screen door
Something âbout the sound of a g-chord
Foot tappinâ on a loose board
Moon dancinâ behind the willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog clear across the creek
That ole house gets a little warm
Thatâs why god made a front porch
I step over my ole dog and head to work
Put in a full day till my back hurts
As fast as this world goes âround and âround
Everybody needs a place to slow down
As my tires hit the gravel drive
The summer sunâs hanginâ on for dear life
Thereâs my little angel in her sun dress
Sittinâ cross-legged on the wood steps
Chorus:
Thatâs why god made a front porch
Put a little creak in the screen door
Something âbout the sound of a g-chord
Foot tappinâ on a loose board
Wind chimes jangle in the evening breeze
You can hear that bullfrog clear across the creek
A peaceful rain follows a thunderstorm
Thatâs why god made a front porch
Chorus:
Full moon dancinâ behind the willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog clear across the creek
Yeah, that ole house gets a little warm
Thatâs why god made a front porch
Thatâs why god made a front porch
