Pink Azaleas

A wrought iron garden set
Painted up white and set out on the deck
Amazing Grace from a hymnal page
Taped to the 'fridgerator door
swaying in the breeze
Pink azaleas line the front of the house
The storm when come around
And flooded the
It’s hard to see 'em growing up so fast
Life hits you hard and it seems so damn long
Crying over bills at the kitchen table
Hopin' your babies grow up strong
Vodka and tomato juice and salt on the rim
Makes a good drink for a Sunday 'noon
I got the window unit on in the back bedroom
And the girls can sleep on the floor
It’s hard to see 'em growing up so fast
Life hits you hard and it seems so damn long
Crying over bills at the kitchen table
Hopin' your babies grow up strong
Praying their babies grow up strong
Junebugs buzzin' 'round the lightbulb
Train song in the night air
It’s hard to see 'em growing up so fast
Life hits you hard and it seems so damn long
Crying over bills at the kitchen table
Hopin' your babies grow up strong
Praying their babies grow up strong
