[Verse 1]
He clocks out late, hands all worn
Grease on his jeans from the workday worn
Still pulls up smiling when he hits that drive
Kiss on his girl and a breath in time
She keeps the house like a light on warm
Feeds them all good when the day gets long
He sees it all, every little thing
How she turns a hard week into a wedding ring
[Pre-Chorus]
And he don't say much
But it runs that deep
He'd move that sky
For the ones he keeps
[Chorus]
That's my home, that's my pride
My girl right there by my side
Strong little hearts, big old dreams
I live for them, and they live for me
That's my home, that's my pride
Hold me up, and I hold them tight
I work hard, I pray they know
Love like this helps a family grow
[Verse 2]
Saturday dust on a ballfield fence
Little hands swinging with no fear left
He teaches them grit, how to stand their ground
How to shake it off when the world gets loud
He wants them kind, but built like steel
With a full heart and a will to heal
Wants them laughing long when the night rolls in
And a safe place back when the road gets thin
[Pre-Chorus]
And if they ever fall
He'll be right there still
A steady old tree
On that hill
[Chorus]
That's my home, that's my pride
My girl right there by my side
Strong little hearts, big old dreams
I live for them, and they live for me
That's my home, that's my pride
Hold me up, and I hold them tight
I work hard, I pray they know
Love like this helps a family grow
[Bridge]
Some folks chase gold
Some chase fame
He just wants his name
In their last name
On a porch at dusk
With a meal set out
Kids in the yard
And his wife laughing loud
[Chorus]
That's my home, that's my pride
My girl right there by my side
Strong little hearts, big old dreams
I live for them, and they live for me
That's my home, that's my pride
Hold me up, and I hold them tight
I work hard, I pray they know
Love like this helps a family grow
