Used to dream about
buyin' that bigger house
Sittin' on top of some hill
Losin' sleep about
fillin' my bank account
Wonderin' if I ever will
But the older I get
I just care less and less
'bout keepin' up with people
named Jones
If you don't fill it up
with somebody that you love
It ain't ever gonna feel
like home
There's always gonna be a
higher high
You could chase for the
rest of your life
Greener grass
in the yard next door
Or a shined-up Chevy
little newer than yours
You're never gonna fill an
empty cup
If what you got's still
not enough
The thing about
happiness I've found is
It don't live in bigger houses
I can hear the kids
makin' little footsteps
Runnin' down the
hallway upstairs
I can see the dogs
playin' in a backyard
Through the kitchen window
right there
Maybe life's kinda more
'bout a swing on a porch
Holdin' her
while the sun disappears
Why would I wanna be
anywhere else in the world
When my whole world is
sittin' right here
There's always gonna be a
higher high
You could chase for the
rest of your life
Greener grass
in the yard next door
Or a shined-up Chevy
little newer than yours
You're never gonna fill an
empty cup
If what you got's still
not enough
The thing about
happiness I've found is
It don't live in bigger houses
No no no no no no no
There's always gonna be a
higher high
You could chase for the
rest of your life
Greener grass
in the yard next door
Or a shined-up Chevy
little newer than yours
You're never gonna fill an
empty cup
If what you got's still
not enough
The thing about happiness
I've found is
It don't live in bigger houses
The thing about
happiness I've found is
It don't live in bigger houses
