[Intro]
[Verse]
Oh Oh, it ain t easy when the wolf s knocking at your door
Oh Oh, Itâs wearing us thin and heâs always coming back for more
Nippin at our feet here
Take another chunk there and it canât hold
[Chorus]
We can build something better than this
No more living in a house made of sticks
They can huff, puff
Try all they want
But they wonât bring us down
[Verse]
Oh Oh, the lines are down and our faith is busting at the seems
Oh Oh, if the storm hits town, weâll be drifting down the river deep
We dig a little bit here
We dig a little bit there and it wonât hold
[Chorus]
We can build something better than this
No more living in a house made of sticks
They can huff, puff
Try all they want
But they wonât bring us down
[Bridge]
They say that if the levee breaks
Then the water swallows everything
There ain t no thinking clearly when
When youâre swimming in the deep end
Lets not take another chance of being carried away
You plant a little seed
It takes a little time
Get up off our knees
We can grow with it
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
We can build something better than this
No more living in a house made of sticks
They can huff, puff
Try all they want
But they wonât bring us down
We can build something better than this
No more living in a house made of sticks
They can huff, puff
Try all they want
But they wonât bring us down
[Outro]
They can huff, puff
Try all they want
But they wonât bring us down
