There's a house that's a little run down
This city ain't never found
It's miles and miles from a paved road

That's where we grew up
Seven children raised on love
When life gets hard that's where we go

Daddy, don't know a stranger
A handshake and he's your friend
Oh, and mama she's an Angel
She'll hold you tight till the heartache ends

Just a place made of nails and wood
But it's the love that makes you feel so good
That's what I call, that's what I call home

Daddy built it with his own two hands
Overlooking his grandpa's land
Now through the years a lot has changed

But drivin' up this gravel road
I get that feelin' in my soul
I thank God some things still remain

Daddy, don't know a stranger
A handshake and he's your friend
Oh, and Mama she's an Angel
She'll hold you tight till the heartache ends

Just a place made of nails and wood
But it's the love that makes you feel so good
That's what I call, that's what I call home

Once I get myself
Through that old screen door
The world can't touch me anymore

Daddy, don't know a stranger
A handshake and he's your friend
Oh, and Mama she's an Angel
She'll hold you tight till the heartache ends

Just a place made of nails and wood
But it's the love that makes you feel so good
That's what I call, that's what I call home
That's what I call home, that's what I call home
