good friends help when my back’s up against one
good songs shake them when the home team wins one
best bars are the little bitty hole in the walls
everybody’s grandma’s house had your picture up
few of us had that cash middle finger taped
up on our high school second floor bedroom walls
chorus:
& brick by brick i built around my heart
& that barbwire top made gettin in real hard
but one night of holdin you did
what a wreckin’ ball just couldn’t
come & kiss me one more time & watch them fall
cause damn you know how to take down a man’s walls
yeah you do
baby i wanna know what makes you climb up them
come to your rescue when a few close in
dance into a kiss maybe knock a few 8x10s off my walls
chorus 2:
cause brick by brick i built around my heart
& that barbwire top made gettin in real hard
but one night of holdin you did
what a wreckin’ ball just couldn’t
come & kiss me one more time & watch them fall
cause damn you know how to take down a man’s walls
take down a mans walls
chorus 3:
& brick by brick i built around my heart
& that barbwire top made gettin in real hard
but one night of holdin you did
what a wreckin’ ball just couldn’t
come & kiss me one more time & watch them fall
cause damn you know how to take down a man’s walls
yeah you knock them down
