Built To Last
© Lee Johnson
I need truck repairs, head gasket's blown
I'm upside down, on my loan
Computer crashed it's time to upgrade
was made like junk just to, throw away
What's this world comin' to?
When it comes to things that don't break down,
I can only name a few....
What's Built to Last is my Family (our family 2nd 3rd + 4th x)
Faith in God, and this Great Country
Our little house is here to stay
Walls of Love will never break
These days things fall apart so fast,
I gotta count my Blessings and hang on (we gotta count our... 2nd 3rd+4th x)
to what's Built To Last
It's simple math, my wife tells me
No problem's bigger, than 2 feet
It's that far from your knees to the ground
Your prayers won't ever, let you down
She says "Don't ask "what's this world coming to?"
Honey, when it comes to things that don't break down
We've got more than just a few"
(Chorus then bridge)
I asked my Dad for his point of view
He said "son I'm gonna speak the truth
You best not forget who's number one
Set your sights on what's important, your wife and my grandson"...
(Chorus 3 Breakdown 1st 1/2, then Chorus Big, with Vamps Out)
