Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Magnavox in the living room, CBS and NBC
Clothesline tent in the backyard
Hockey game playing in the street
Deck of cards in the kitchen
Cool breeze from our screen door
Grandma reading love letters
Grandpa wrote her in the war
[Verse 2]
Free, all those memories
Free, didn't cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards
Chasing store-bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all
When all the things we want are free
[Verse 3]
Got your accent from your hometown
Sense of humor from your dad
Get your green eyes from your mother
God knows you can't buy that
They'll charge you for your six-pack
But your friends, they're always there
A few extra bucks in the offering plate
Even though you can't buy a prayer
[Verse 4]
Free, all those memories
Free, didn't cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards
Chasing store-bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all
When all the things we want are free
[Verse 5]
Free, all those memories
Free, didn't cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards
Chasing store-bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all
When all the things we want are free
[Verse 6]
Free
Free
