"For The Kids" lyrics - LUKE BRYAN

Big backyard with a fence around it
Right next to the best school in the county
Sold the car and financed a Tahoe
With a third row
All week, you're runnin' from dance to baseball
The dinner you fixed gets cold while I take a call

[Pre-Chorus:]
You're tired all the time
I'm tired all the time

[Chorus:]
For the kids, I go to work, you stay at home
Do what we do just to get through and watch them grow
We fill this house with love
But somehow lose it between us
We swore we'd never end up like this
Married for the kids

We can tell that somethin' don't feel right
Try to talk it out on Wednesday date night
But always end up in some kind of big fight
Don't even know why
I guess I just miss my blue jean baby
And you miss your Friday night band

[Pre-Chorus:]
We keep holdin' on
'Cause we gotta be strong

[Chorus:]
For the kids, I go to work, you stay at home
Do what we do just to get through and watch them grow
We fill this house with love
But somehow lose it between us
We swore we'd never end up like this
Married for the kids

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus:]
For the kids, we stay up cryin' all night long
But in my arms, I know it's right where you belong
We fill this house with love
It begins and ends with us
Baby, there ain't nothin' we can't fix
I know you don't want it, and I don't want it like this
Married for the kids
Married for the kids
(Mm-mm-mm)
