  • Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise
    My baby's got a song to sing
    While the crickets and the
    Train whistle harmonize
    Doing that front porch thing
    Clanging out, banging out a feel good tune
    Strumming on my old 6 string
    Sure can kill these country blues
    Doing that front porch thing

    Work's been slow, money's been tight
    But that's alright, honey, that's alright
    Sometimes you won't, but sometimes you will
    And when she do what she do
    It's a doggone thrill

    When the moon comes up, we sit down
    And the chains start creaking
    Making swinging sounds
    Fall in love, all over again
    Having so much fun, it ought to be a sin

    When we're doing that front porch thing
    When we're doing that front porch thing
    Doing that front porch thing Writer/s: ADAM HOOD, CHRISTOPHER ALVIN STAPLETON
