[Verse 1]
Got scripture on the counter, tattoos on my skin
Couple scars from the places that I’ve already been
Boots by the doorway, backpacks on the floor
Hell, I quit counting who’s coming through that door
Only one’s got my blood, some got somebody else’s name
But you come into this family, I love you just the same
Yeah, they test every nerve that the good Lord gave
But touch one of these kids, better start to pray
[Pre-Chorus]
We ain’t picture-perfect, never claimed to be
But every damn soul here belongs to me
[Chorus]
This is my house, that’s my woman
Those are my kids, don’t care where they come from
Cross inked in my chest, tats down my arms
I’m just a God-fearing man
We fight too loud, love even louder
Fall down hard, come back prouder
Blood don’t decide who I’d bleed for tonight
Under this roof, they’re all mine
[Verse 2]
She’s got her Bible, I’ve got questions for God
But I’m learning faith ain’t always knowing it all
She’s fire in a sundress, I’m ink and scars
Two hardheaded hearts underneath these stars
There’s boys making choices that’ll turn my hair gray
Girls at the table got a whole lot to say
Dogs raising hell, books stacked to the sky
Ain’t a quiet damn minute, but that’s my kinda life
[Pre-Chorus]
It ain’t peace and quiet, brother, not around here
But I’d rather have this chaos than an empty house anywhere
[Chorus]
This is my house, that’s my woman
Those are my kids, don’t care where they come from
Cross inked in my chest, tats down my arms
I’m just a God-fearing man
We fight too loud, love even louder
Fall down hard, come back prouder
Blood don’t decide who I’d bleed for tonight
Under this roof, they’re all mine
[Bridge]
I’ve buried people I thought I’d grow old beside
Learned the hard way nothing’s promised in this life
So if God gave me one more family to hold
I’ll stand at this door ’til He calls me home
Yeah, mine ain’t measured by a last name
It’s who I’d run through hell to save
[Breakdown]
My woman
My kids
My dogs
My home
Every one
Every soul
Underneath this roof, you’re one of my own
Blood or not—
You sit at my table, you ain’t standing alone
[Final Chorus]
THIS IS MY HOUSE, THAT’S MY WOMAN
THOSE ARE MY KIDS, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF ‘EM
Cross inked in my chest, tats down my arms
I’m just a God-fearing man
We raise some hell, say our prayers after
Fill these walls with fights and laughter
And if Heaven asks what I did with this life
I built a home and I held it tight
Blood don’t decide who I’d die for tonight
Under this roof—
they’re all mine.
