One House Down (from the girl next door) Songtext
von Madeline Merlo

Got a tattoo too young, reckless as it gets
Out the barrel like a smoking gun
Didn′t live on a lot with a white picket fence
But I grew up wishing we had one
I wasn't the daughter of the Joneses
But you saw the blue sky in my hurricane
More wildflower than roses
But you fell for my heart anyway
Might have not been a mama′s first choice
For a golden All-American boy
Who knew you'd find everything you were looking for
One house down from the girl next door
From the girl next door
Not a hair out of place, she's sweet tea sweet
Never hear her say a bad word
You ain′t coming home to the homecoming queen


But I love that you love that I ain′t her
Might have not been a mama's first choice
For a golden All-American boy
Who knew you′d find everything you were looking for
One house down from the girl next door
From the girl next door
When you were looking for love
Yeah, you were looking for me
Baby I was just a little further down the street
Oh, oh
Might have not been a mama's first choice
For a golden All-American boy
Who knew you′d find everything you were looking for
One house down from the girl next door
From the girl next door
From the girl next door, oh
