When I think of you I think of growing old easy
Settling down real early in the evening
On a twin size mattress in the middle of a snowstorm
Stealing them covers and keeping each other warm
Loving on you til we both go six feet
Ain’t got much but we’re living that big dream



It’s you and me and the basic channels
Yard full of weeds and some beat up flannels
Little house, out of town
Hunker down through the highs and lows
When the sky comes down
Baby I’m gonna hold you close
It’s you and me and the basic channels



When I think of you I think of letting go of misery
Turning my past into ancient history
Love that lasts and little country babies
Growing up fast in a world gone crazy



It’s you and me and the basic channels
Yard full of weeds and some beat up flannels
Little house, out of town
Hunker down through the highs and lows
When the sky comes down
Baby I’m gonna hold you close
It’s you and me and the basic channels
All we need are the basic channels
You and me and the basic channels
