[Intro]
[Verse]
The hinges creak like a familiar song
I’ve been sweeping this floor for way too long
Handwritten tags on the wooden bins
Counting the losses and the little wins
There was a minute I thought I’d quit
Three generations of grease and grit
[Chorus]
Now the screen door swings on a golden light
Everything’s gonna be alright
The kids I hired to stock the shelves
Are building houses for themselves
Buying the lumber for a brand new porch
Passing along the family torch
Yeah, it’s a quiet kind of pride
Knowing I’m still on the winning side
[Verse]
I remember Danny in a stained-up vest
Always putting my patience to the test
Sticky fingerprints on the counter glass
Watching the summer evenings pass
Now he’s asking for a level and a line
Saying “Mr. Miller, this porch is mine”
[Pre-Chorus]
The paint samples are chipped and worn
But a new foundation is being born
I see the man he’s grown to be
And it looks like a legacy to me
[Chorus]
Now the screen door swings on a golden light
Everything’s gonna be alright
The kids I hired to stock the shelves
Are building houses for themselves
Buying the lumber for a brand new porch
Passing along the family torch
Yeah, it’s a quiet kind of pride
Knowing I’m still on the winning side
[Bridge]
The ledger books are full of names
More than just some hardware games
It’s a hammer, a nail, and a steady hand
Holding together this patch of land
We survived the quiet years
Now the laughter drowns the fears
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Now the screen door swings on a golden light
Everything’s gonna be alright
The kids I hired to stock the shelves
Are building houses for themselves
Buying the lumber for a brand new porch
Passing along the family torch
Yeah, it’s a quiet kind of pride
Knowing I’m still on the winning side
[Post-Chorus]
Building it up
Filling the cup
One nail at a time
Making it climb
[Outro]
