Memories of Home

On the tree lined grassy pathway
Past the red barn on the right
Down where Deer Creek's just a trickle
'Neath the cottonwoods' great height
As I stand upon the footbridge
We built many years ago
It reminds of my family
And how I love them so

It's our Home
It may be simple but it's rich in memories
It's our Home
It's not fancy, but it's everything we need
As the squirrel leaps to the walnut tree
And the raccoon steals all our birdies' seed
I'm so thankful for these memories of Home

It's the hand print in the cement
That he pressed in '85
A circus starring woolly bears
Was led by that same child
Fish scales on the Picnic table
Where we cleaned mess to fry
The spirit of a girl yells JUMP
As I catch her from the sky

It's our Home
It may be simple but it's rich in memories
It's our Home
It's not fancy, but it's everything we need
As the squirrel leaps to the walnut tree
And the raccoon steals all our birdies' seed
I'm so thankful for these memories of Home

It's our Home
It may be simple but it's rich in memories
It's our Home
It's not fancy, but it's everything we need
As the squirrel leaps to the walnut tree
And the raccoon steals all our birdies' seed
I'm so thankful for these memories of Home

It's the asparagus I planted
Only eaten by my wife
And two acres worth of forest
Overflowing with wildlife
The laughter of teenagers
Watching movies Friday nights
And the stars above at midnight
Far away from city lights

It's our Home
It may be simple but it's rich in memories
It's our Home
It's not fancy, but it's everything we need
As the squirrel leaps to the walnut tree
And the raccoon steals all our birdies' seed
I'm so thankful for these memories of Home
