[Verse] That ol’ white picket fence, it’s bowin’ low tonight, Leanin’ like a tired man who’s lost his fight. Paint’s all chipped and faded, weathered by the rain, Holdin’ on to memories, but it’s feelin’ the strain. [Pre-Chorus] And the wind, it whispers softly through the cracks of time, Sings a song of sorrow, in a slow, sad rhyme. [Chorus] Oh, that leanin’ picket fence, tell me what you know, How long you’re gonna stand when the cold winds blow? Holdin’ tight to love that’s worn like an old, worn hand, Leanin’ just like a tired old man. [Verse] Sunset fades behind those weary wooden lines, Shadows stretch like heartaches caught between the pines. Every knot and splinter tells a story deep and true, Of dreams that once were young, and hope we thought we knew. [Pre-Chorus] And the night, it hums a lonesome, bluesy lullaby, Wraps the fence in silence, as the stars float by. [Chorus] Oh, that leanin’ picket fence, tell me what you know, How long you’re gonna stand when the cold winds blow? Holdin’ tight to love that’s worn like an old, worn hand, Leanin’ just like a tired old man. [Bridge] Some days it feels like giving in is all you can do, But that fence keeps holdin’ on, just like me and you. We may bend and falter, but we’ll never break apart, Leanin’ on each other, singing from the heart. [Chorus] Oh, that leanin’ picket fence, tell me what you know, How long you’re gonna stand when the cold winds blow? Holdin’ tight to love that’s worn like an old, worn hand, Leanin’ just like a tired old man. [Outro] Leanin’ just like a tired old man... Holdin’ on, as best as anyone can...
