Well I got my saw and a hammer
Put on my workin´ jeans
Went on down the saw mill
And I bought some planks and beams
It might take a month of Sundays
A good about of spit and nails
But a little hard work ain’t something that gets me scared

I drew it on a match book
I think I worked the plan out fair
And from right here where I’m standin´
She’s lookin´ pretty plumb and square

Well my daddy he once told me
There ain’t no such thing as free
You get more from somethin´ the more that you put in
With parts and labor that's and a workin´ mans advice

I put my nose down to the grindstone
And rolled my sleeves up high
Put down a good foundation
And day after day went by
The road sure was a rough one
A rocky hill to climb
But hard work is what it takes to get a job done right

She sits up on the mountain
That house I call my home
Built with these two hands
A little sweat and blood and bone

Now I sure won’t owe the tax man
And the bankers they all frown
Cause I built her cash on the barrel head
No loan no money down
Now I’m due a long vacation
But I won’t be go’n nowhere
I’ll be sitin´ on my front porch a rockin´ in my chair

The cheese you find in mouse traps
Is the only lunch that’s free
Well I bet y bottom dollar
I guess my daddy would agree

[ Lyrics: Vegar Lervik Nesset ]

I’m driving through the city of regrets
It was a pointless resolution
Now there’s a stranger in my bed
I’m heading for the hillside in the rain
And I just can’t loose this feeling
Like everything’s in vain

Every other season might change
But as long as you can stay within range - stay in my range

I wouldn’t mind the waiting
I wouldn’t mind this pain inside
I wouldn’t need another
If I knew - it was all because of you - this time

I’ve never wasted hazy days of June
But now I’ve spent to many hours
In the shadow of the moon
So I’m heading for the hillside in the rain
And I just can’t wait to hold you
In my arms again

Every other season might change
But as long as you just stay within range

I wouldn’t mind the waiting
I wouldn’t mind this pain inside
I wouldn’t need no other
If I knew it was all because of you this time

I will seek to find a reason
‘Tho this infinite sadness trembles through

And I wouldn’t mind the waiting
I wouldn’t mind this pain inside
I wouldn’t need no other
If I knew it was all because of you this time
