[Verse 1]
A squeaky gate, a welcome mat, a big shaggy dog that lives out back
And some might even call it a shack but this is the house where love lives
[Verse 2]
The paint is peelin' off of the ceils, the mailbox is full of bills
And it's no mansion on the hill but this is the house where love lives
[Verse 3]
There's a little boy who looks just you with freckles on his nose and eyes of blue
A little girl almost two and everybody says she looks just like you
[Chorus]
So thank you dear for loving me, though I know rich we'll never be
But that doesn't matter to you and me 'cause we live in the house where love lives
So thank you dear for loving me though, I know rich we'll never be
But that doesn't matter to you and me 'cause we live in the house where love lives
We live in the house where love lives
A squeaky gate, a welcome mat, a big shaggy dog that lives out back
And some might even call it a shack but this is the house where love lives
[Verse 2]
The paint is peelin' off of the ceils, the mailbox is full of bills
And it's no mansion on the hill but this is the house where love lives
[Verse 3]
There's a little boy who looks just you with freckles on his nose and eyes of blue
A little girl almost two and everybody says she looks just like you
[Chorus]
So thank you dear for loving me, though I know rich we'll never be
But that doesn't matter to you and me 'cause we live in the house where love lives
So thank you dear for loving me though, I know rich we'll never be
But that doesn't matter to you and me 'cause we live in the house where love lives
We live in the house where love lives
