Little Pink House on a Louisiana Lane

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some folks said it wouldn't last Six months, then it'd all be past But forty-seven years went by Blue eyes meeting bluest sky At her mama's kitchen sink Closer than they'd ever think [Chorus] Little pink house down a Louisiana lane Through the sunshine and the rain Gratitude in every line Thank the Lord that you are mine Best friend, soul mate, all in one Our forever's just begun [Verse 2] Her uncle tried to run me off But love don't bend, and love don't soft Three good kids and four grandbabies Six to fifteen, sweet as daisies I climbed out of darker days She believed in better ways [Chorus] Little pink house down a Louisiana lane Through the sunshine and the rain Gratitude in every line Thank the Lord that you are mine Best friend, soul mate, all in one Our forever's just begun [Bridge] Rick, you almost lost her once Held her hand and prayed for months Every breakfast, every dish Is a thank-you, is a wish [Verse 3] Bought that house, you hadn't seen Trusted me, sight unseen Idaho to bayou skies Health came back, joy in your eyes Rick, retirement's calling near Best is still ahead, my dear [Chorus] Little pink house down a Louisiana lane Through the sunshine and the rain Gratitude in every line Thank the Lord that you are mine Best friend, soul mate, all in one Our forever's just begun [Outro] Rick and Dianna, hand in hand Built a love that still can stand Little pink house, big blue sky You and me, you and I
