Picket Fences Lyrics
Chely Wright
(chely wright)
(track 7 - time 4:06)
Little boys and little girls dream of big, big things
Theyre taught at a tender age just what life should bring
Get a job say I do and settle yourself down
But what about those of us whose lives are still spinnin around
Tell me whats so great about picket fences
Paintin thems such a mess
And a big back yard where kids can play
Id probably never get a moments rest
And settin the table for five at five
Only means more dishes to load
Whats so great about picket fences
I guess Ill never know
Here I am in my prime at least they tell me so
And if I go to sleep at night I always go alone
I guess that I could have it all and someone by my side
But I cant take the give and take the price is just too high
Tell me whats so great about picket fences
Paintin thems such a mess
And a big back yard where kids can play
Id probably never get a moments rest
And settin the table for five at five
Only means more dishes to load
Whats so great about picket fences
I guess Ill never know
Tell me whats so great about picket fences
I guess Ill never know
