I had a beer with a friend one night
He said man tell me what makes you happy inside
I said
Six strings and a woman to love
That's the kind of life I've been dreamin' of
Well I learned fast it's hard to have both
My six string life is always on the road
Well new cities new stories to tell
But I'd trade it all away just to have my own doorbell
Yeah I want my own doorbell
He said
Look around what do you see
I looked him in the eye I said your lifestyle's healthy
Four walls, food in the fridge
A well-trained dog and a stable job
He said those are material things
Don't ever take for granted things that money can't buy you
Got a house a car and a suitcase
But I'd trade it all away just to have my own dream to chase
You have a doorbell
And I have a dream
I wonder if we trade our lives
Would we truly be happy
Now I
Go around singing the truth
I finally realized that what I've been through is
Something that you can't take from me
It's not concrete it is memories
And I'll never take for granted again
All the loving eyes that wanna see where I'll go and
The other side's the same old truth
Where would your family be without you
You have a doorbell
And I have a dream
I wonder if we trade our lives
Would we truly be happy
It's all in your mind
The grass seems greener on the other side
Well it's all in your mind
You gotta water yours 'till you're satisfied
It's all in your mind
The grass seems greener on the other side
Yeah it's all in your mind
You gotta water yours 'till you're satisfied
You have a doorbell
And I have a dream
I wonder if we trade our lives
Would we truly be happy
You have a doorbell
And I have a dream
I wonder if we trade our lives
Would we truly be happy
