Porch Smoke, Turning World

Lyrics

Verse 1
Old screen door
Keeps on squeakin'
Allen’s laugh
Got my sides still achin'
Bare feet up
On a tired railin'
Sun drops slow
Like it’s done tailgatin'

Ashtray full
But the night feels cleaner
Crickets loud
Than any big arena
We pass time
Like we’re passin’ seasons
Talkin’ ‘bout nothin’
Finding our reasons

Chorus
We’re just sittin’ on the porch
Watchin’ this world turn
Let the sky burn orange
Let the fireflies learn
Every little worry
Leaves with the smoke we churn
Me and my brother
Allen
Watchin’ this world turn

Verse 2
Headlights hum
Down that two-lane ribbon
Neighbors wave
Yeah
This life we’re livin’
Ain’t rich fame
But it sure feels golden
Every joke
Just a story we’re holdin’

Mama’s voice
Floatin’ through the window
“Y’all alright?”
Yeah
We’re ridin’ this slow
We don’t rush
What the good Lord’s givin’
Talk small stuff
‘Til it sounds like wisdom

Chorus
We’re just sittin’ on the porch
Watchin’ this world turn
Let the sky burn orange
Let the fireflies learn
Every little worry
Leaves with the smoke we churn
Me and my brother
Allen
Watchin’ this world turn

Bridge
Someday we’ll be
Old men talkin’
Same old boards
Still creak when we’re walkin’
Hope this view
Still feels like church
Two worn chairs
Same front porch

Chorus
We’re just sittin’ on the porch
Watchin’ this world turn
Let the sky burn orange
Let the fireflies learn
Every little worry
Leaves with the smoke we churn
Me and my brother
Allen
Watchin’ this world turn
