[Verse 1]
Plastic flamingos in the front yard
Rust on the Chevy
Paint flaked off
Credit card hanging by a thin thread
Still we toast like we’re on top
Tiny apartment with a big view
Of the billboard selling lives we crave
You spin around in my old shirt
Say
“Who needs all that anyway?”
[Chorus]
We’re living so high on a low
Low budget
Laughing ’bout the things that we don’t got (hey!)
Two hearts drunk on a hand-me-down sunset
Balling in a broke-down parking lot
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
You and me
Baby
In the discount sky
We ain’t rich
But we’re rich in the way that it counts
We’re living so high
Living so high
[Verse 2]
Milk crate table
Midnight takeout
Half-warm fries
Cold red wine
Your bare feet on my dashboard
Singing off key
Still sounds fine
Neighbors pounding on the thin walls
You turn it up
Dance anyway
You say
“One day we’ll own it all”
I say
“We kind of do today”
[Chorus]
We’re living so high on a low
Low budget
Laughing ’bout the things that we don’t got (oh yeah)
Two hearts drunk on a hand-me-down sunset
Balling in a broke-down parking lot
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
You and me
Baby
In the discount sky
We ain’t rich
But we’re rich in the way that it counts
We’re living so high
Living so high
[Bridge]
Who needs gold when I got your shoulder
Who needs a throne when I got this truck
Let the world keep chasing that ladder
We got faith
We got fire
We got us (hey!)
[Chorus]
We’re living so high on a low
Low budget
Laughing ’bout the things that we don’t got
Two hearts drunk on a hand-me-down sunset
Balling in a broke-down parking lot
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
You and me
Baby
In the discount sky
We ain’t rich
But we’re rich in the way that it counts
We’re living so high
Living so high
Living so high
Living so high
