"I Want To Live In A House With You" lyrics - OLD DOMINION

Everybody talks about
Going on a walkabout
To see the seven wonders of the world
Trying to find the greener grass
Or get a sweeter piece of aspiration
Or an oyster with a pearl
Tomatoes in the garden
And the jelly's in the jar
They say home is where the heart is
And my heart is with you

[Chorus:]
I wanna live in a house with you forever (hey) and ever (hey hey)
We ain't gotta do nothing new, not ever (hey) no never (hey hey)
A yard with a cat and a dog named Blue
A couple rugrats singing "Buckle My Shoe"
Don't need a window for a wonderful view
I wanna live in a house with you forever

We'll be busy when your mama calls
And raking up the leaves in fall
And paint the walls whatever shade you want
We'll build a little wrap-around
So we can watch the sun go down
'Till we go down the hallway for some fun
'Cause love is seven days a week
And roots are made for running deep
And here comes the chorus on cue

[Chorus:]
I wanna live in a house with you forever (hey) and ever (hey, hey)
We ain't gotta do nothing new, not ever (hey) no never (hey, hey)
A yard with a cat and a dog named Blue
A couple rugrats singing "Buckle My Shoe"
Don't need a window for a wonderful view
I wanna live in a house with you forever

[Bridge:]
And if you ever leave, I'll burn it to the ground
But if you come back, I'll build it back better than it was when you left

[Chorus:]
'Cause I wanna live in a house with you forever and ever (Oh!)
I wanna live in a house with you forever (hey) and ever (hey, hey)
We ain't gotta do nothing new, not ever (hey) no never (hey, hey)
A yard with a cat and a dog named Blue
A couple rugrats singing "Buckle My Shoe"
Don't need a window for a wonderful view
I wanna live in a house with you forever
I wanna live in a house with you forever
