. Sittin' here countin' the cars go by In a hour must've been one or two The sheets are flappin' on momma's clothes line It's an old front porch swing afternoon . I can hear music from somewhere outside The faint sound of a Hank Williams tune I just caught the scent of a blackberry pie On this old front porch swing afternoon . And mmmm mmmm, feel that breeze blowin' That magnolia showing her blooms On this old front porch swing afternoon . That old dog is laying under grandpa's old chair He ain't looking for nothing to do And that tractor is stirrin' up dust over there On this old front porch swing afternoon . I can see grandma now in her old checkered dress Beatin' a rug with her broom The clouds are a churnin' coming in from the west On this old front porch swing afternoon . And mmm mmmm, feel that breeze blowin' The sun will be going down soon On this old front porch swing afternoon It's an old front porch swing afternoon .
