I grew up in a single wide on the edge of town
Where the nights were quiet and the stars shone down
Mama worked at the pizza shop slinging pies all day
Daddy at the steel mill sweating for his pay
But every Saturday night he'd play the bass guitar
In a little honky-tonk just down the road not so far
Those were the days when life was tough and lean
But love was all we needed in our simple dream
We were living in a single wide making memories
With the sound of mama's laughter and daddy's melodies
Though times were hard and money was tight
We held on to each other in that single wide
Daddy's hands were calloused, mama's fingers worn
But they taught us about love in that trailer we call home
Now mama's a medical assistant in a uniform of white
Daddy's still strumming strings playing through the night
We moved to a new house, left that trailer behind
But the lessons that we learned stay with us in our minds
We remember those days, though the times have changed
But love in that single wide will always remain
We were living in a single wide making memories
With the sound of mama's laughter and daddy's melodies
Though times were hard and money was tight
We held on to each other in that single wide
Now I drive by that old place every now and then
Thinking about the struggles and how far we've been
The love and the laughter, the tears and the pride
All the moments we cherished in that single wide
We were living in a single wide making memories
With the sound of mama's laughter and daddy's melodies
Though times were hard and money was tight
We held on to each other in that single wide
Yeah, we held on to each other in that single wide
No matter where we go, those memories will never die
