lyrics

The expansions and contractions at the edges and interiors
Of our cities is worrying carpenters and contractors
They’re looking for ways to make their businesses improve
They’re fixing people’s doors and putting dormers on people’s roofs

I don’t care if there’s too much work or a work shortage
As long as I can make enough money to pay the mortgage
I ‘d rather stay at home all day and treat my baby rough
But she’s in school now she ain’t got time for that stuff

It’s true has the economy affected you
It affected my baby and now it’s affecting me too

She’s got the school book she’s got the school loans she’s going to be a physician
They’re going to vex her with their questions all the time accosting her
Maybe I’ll get lucky writing songs down in Nashville
Maybe I’ll just have to keep replacing windows and windowsills
