| I remember the day when I walked in to my first grade class |
| It was where granddaddy taught me how to cuss and how to pray |
| It was where we made our own ice cream those sultry summer nights |
| Where the bulldog had her puppies, and us brothers had our fights |
| There were many nights I'd sit right there and look out at the stars |
| To the sound of a distant whippoorwill or the hum of a passing car |
| It was where I first got up the nerve to steal me my first kiss |
| And it was where I learned to play guitar and pray I had the gift |
| If the world had a front porch like we did back then |
| We'd still have our problems but we'd all be friends |
| Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin |
| Wouldn't be gone with the wind |
| If the world had a front porch, like we did back then |
| Purple hulls and pintos, I've shelled more than my share |
| As lightening bugs and crickets danced in the evening air |
| And like a beacon that old yellow bulb, it always led me home |
| Somehow mama always knew just when to leave it on |
| If the world had a front porch like we did back then |
| We'd still have our problems but we'd all be friends |
| Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin |
| Wouldn't be gone with the wind |
| If the world had a front porch, like we did back then |
| Treating your neighbor like he's your next of kin |
| Wouldn't be gone with the wind |
| If the world had a front porch, like we did back then |
