6 a.m. and you're out the door
Can't win the game if you don't keep score

6 a.m. and you're out the door
Can't win the game if you don't keep score

Pressure builds. Payin bills. Prayin it stops, but you don't think it will

Where the pines and the apple tree grow
Shadows longer and the sun is gettin low
Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home

Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home

Can't guess where you're headin next
Overwhelmed and underdressed
Keepin up while your mind changes every minute
Fighting for position, but your heart isn't in it

Where the pines and the apple tree grow
Shadows longer and the sun is getting low
Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home
Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home

6 p.m. and you're out the door
Back in your car but you don't know what for
Rain and snow grey hair white knuckles
Stop and go til your threshold buckles

Hot sweats cold chills while that pressure builds
Can of beer can of freer and a fist of pills
Tunnel vision and a high pitched weezing
Your heart stops cold but your lungs keep breathing

Where the pines and the apple tree grow
Shadows longer and the sun is getting low
Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home

Wouldn't trade those memories for diamonds or gold
Can't keep leavin when you're needin a home
