We had the house where everybody came
We had the music, we played the games
And nobody's parents worried 'bout mine
My momma never left one child behind
Live by the park where all the kids played
There was my dog in a superman cape
Hop in the waggon, headed to the lake
Hey it's your birthday mother made a cake
This was the house where everybody hanged
Ask all my friends they'll tell you the same
Was it the house or was it the gang
Or a phenomenon no one can explain
(The house)

My folks got divorced when I was like three
I understand they weren't meant to be
But dad got remarried and mom did too
To the father of a kid who went to my school
Me and my brothers and my little sis
Never saw mother happy like this
So we sold the house and moved into his
Now 2 adults and 7 cool kids
This was the house where everybody
So much to see and everyone knows
The band's in the basement putting on a show
The girls in the living room playing nintendo
(The house)

3+4, come knock on my door
Never the same kid you saw before
Business out front
The party's back there
I'm talking about my house and not my brother's hair
We had the house where everybody came
We had the music we played the games
And nobody's parents worried about mine
My mother never left one child behind
(The house)
We had the house where everbody hanged
Ask all my friends they'll tell you the same
Was it the house or was it the gang
Or a phenomenon no one can explain?
