Isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
Isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grave
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
Like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls (ahoo)
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls
There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
Like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls (ahoo)
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls (ahoo)
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
Like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls (ahoo)
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
Like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls (ahoo)
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
Isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grave
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things

On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
On my father's grave
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things
Like a social status

A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house
I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in the vicious race
But to provide, for one who asks,
I will, with heart, on my father's grave
I don't mean
To seem like I care about material things
Like our social stats
I just want
Four walls and adobe slats
For my girls
"grave" much clearer.
But then again father's grave makes sense too, its a stronger promise.
:)
the chorus is amazing. so is the rest of the song.
congrats r in order for u
i absolutely love aveys vocals in the backround
and then the part after "adobe slabs for my girls" where you hear b'DUM DUM OWWW!!!! just gives me the chills (:
the one line of note I find interesting is that they refer to their social status as a "material thing." maybe that classification goes beyond the average definition of material, as if social status is a reflection of the material things they may have, and therefore is of no importance. either way, a gem of many sorts and one of the stronger numbers on Merriweather.
It's a simple commentary about the way a lot of people pin a lot of importance on getting the latest gadgets, the shiniest new car etc. People treat getting into the latest gear as a 'social stance'. He's saying all that's important to him is that he has a home with his family.
