Bought Low, Living High

Back in my day, kid, let me paint you the scene
We picked our houses up cheap, if you know what I mean
A fraction of our paycheck, that's all it took
Bought the neighborhood up, come have a look
(But don't come inside)

Bought low, living high, we caught the best deal in sight
While you keep scrounging, we're living our life just right
We hold the keys, from our bottom-dollar buys
In the game of homes, we won the prize

Interest rates? Barely a nick on our pay
We're living the life, while you folks stray
Second homes, winter breaks in the sun
Sorry, we ain't movin' kiddos, we're having too much fun

Got ours in the nick of time, yeah, we hold the keys
While you dream of ownership and battle fees
We got rooms to spare, but hey, why share
We earned our keep, fair and square

We say, "Work hard, save like we did,"
Though the market's changed, and you've been out bid
What cost a little now takes a ton
It's not our fault, hey we're just having fun (guitar!)

So gather round, let me give you some news
While you're busy paying off those graduate dues
(no we won't forgive those loans)
We're planning additions, buying more land
Living the dream, but we won't lend you a hand

Bought low, living high, we caught the best deal in sight
While you keep scrounging, we're living our life just right
We hold the keys, from our bottom-dollar buys
In the game of homes, you know we won the prize

Oh, we watch the market, see it soar
From our paid-off homes, stay away from my door
Keep up the fight, you might find a way through
Until then, we'll be enjoying the view. haha

Hahahaha, good luck kiddos
