When I think of you I think of growing old easy Settling down real early in the evening On a twin size mattress in the middle of a snowstorm Stealing them covers and keeping each other warm Loving on you til we both go six feet Ain't got much but we're living that big dream It's you and me and the basic channels Yard full of weeds and some beat up flannels Little house, out of town Hunker down through the highs and lows When the sky comes down Baby I'm gonna hold you close It's you and me and the basic channels When I think of you I think of letting go of misery Turning my past into ancient history A love that'll last and a little country baby Growing up fast in a world gone crazy It's you and me and the basic channels Yard full of weeds and some beat up flannels Little house, out of town Hunker down through the highs and lows When the sky comes down Baby I'm gonna hold you close It's you and me and the basic channels All we need are the basic channels You and me and the basic channels
