Story behind the song
A nostalgic look back to when people used to sit on their front porches
Lyrics
No Front Porch
The workers arrive when the sun comes up
drinking their coffee from a thermos cup
they're building a house where there once was space
but there ain't no front porch on this place
you gotta have a rocker
you gotta have a swing
you gotta have a place
where we can pick and sing
and take a little break from the old rat race
there ain't no front porch on this place
well how you gonna sit in the rocking chair
feel the cool breeze blowing through your hair
watch the kids playing in the yard
without the front porch it's gonna be hard
you gotta have a rocker
you gotta have a swing
you gotta have a place where we can pick and sing
and take a little break from the old rat race
there ain't no front porch on this place
you and your honey in the month of June
how you gonna sit and watch the moon
kiss and cuddle in the mountain air
you ain't gonna do it if the porch ain't there
you gotta have a rocker
you gotta have a swing
you gotta have a place where we can pick and sing
and take a little break from the old rat race
there ain't no front porch on this place
you gotta have a front porch on this place
son there ain't no front porch on this place
