Lyrics of Sawyer Fredericks – Funeral Parking Only

[Verse 1]You say you wanna home to call your own
And you wasn’t born rich but you wasn’t born poor
Well, see this line here, it says death in the family
I’m sorry, at this time it’s funeral parking only

[Verse 2]You say with a cry, “This must be a lie
Can’t I have what I wish without loved ones dying?”
Now don’t get me wrong, sir, you’re welcome to try
I’m sure you’ll have a home by the time you’re 65

[Chorus]It’s too much for everything I want
If you were 40 years younger, it’d be a quarter of the cost
I’m living paycheck to paycheck, keeping up with the rent
You got a steady paying job? Yeah, but I’m still in debt

[Verse 3]God damn, just throw me a bone
I wanna roof over my head that I actually own
Gotta spend money to make it, when I make it you take it
Now if that’s what my fate is, how the hell can I change it?

[Verse 4]You say you wanna home to call your own
And you wasn’t born rich but you wasn’t born poor
Well, see this line here, it says death in the family
I’m sorry, at this time it’s funeral parking only

[Verse 5]You say with a cry, “This must be a lie
Can’t I have what I wish without loved ones dying?”
Now don’t get me wrong, sir, you’re welcome to try
I’m sure you’ll have a home by the time you’re 85

[Bridge]How dare you tell me to save?
It might have worked for you, but these times ain’t the same
I ain’t got money to waste it, so how the hell could I save it?
Back in your generation, land was ripe for the taking

[Verse 6]Oh please, don’t tell me I’m lazy
If I had three other jobs, it still wouldn’t pay me
Enough for the deposit, not enough for my college
Enough for the mortgage, but not enough to get it started

[Outro]You say you wanna home to call your own
And you wasn’t born rich but you wasn’t born poor
Well, see this line here, it says death in the family
I’m sorry, at this time it’s funeral parking only
