[Verse 1]
I remember smelling smoke
I woke up I was choking
Lorrie grabbed the baby
And we made it safe outside
She never missed a note
Took a breath and cleared her throat
And wrapped him in a Carhartt coat
She found out in my ride
[Verse 2]
Next thing I remember
I was barefoot in December
When I hit the door again
It really came alive
That was all she wrote
In a thirty-second note
I got out with a photograph
And my old Auto-5
[Chorus]
Lord knows that I've been blessed
I can stand up to the test
I can live on so much less
This much I've been learning
Feel a pounding in my chest
I'm fearful, I'll confess
How am I to get my rest?
The house I built is burning
I remember smelling smoke
I woke up I was choking
Lorrie grabbed the baby
And we made it safe outside
She never missed a note
Took a breath and cleared her throat
And wrapped him in a Carhartt coat
She found out in my ride
[Verse 2]
Next thing I remember
I was barefoot in December
When I hit the door again
It really came alive
That was all she wrote
In a thirty-second note
I got out with a photograph
And my old Auto-5
[Chorus]
Lord knows that I've been blessed
I can stand up to the test
I can live on so much less
This much I've been learning
Feel a pounding in my chest
I'm fearful, I'll confess
How am I to get my rest?
The house I built is burning
