i dropped my knees   In that field on your daddy's farm   Asked you to marry me    All I had to give was my heart   While other kids were divin in the swimming holes   You and me drove off into the great unknown      We were barely getting by taking care of each other   And I became a daddy   And you became a mother   It was a uphill battle nearly everyday   Looking back I wouldn't have it any other way      Chorus:    I'm proud of the house we built   It's stronger than sticks, stones, and steel   It's not a big place sittin up high on some hill   Lot of things will come and go    but love never will   Oh, I'm proud   I'm proud of the house we built      Still working our way through the land of milk and honey   At the end of the day there's always more bills than money   I close my eyes at night I still feel   The same fire in my heart out in that field      Chorus:   I'm proud of the house we built   It's stronger than sticks,stones, and steel   It's not a big place sittin up high on some hill   Lot of things will come and go    But love never will   i'm proud   Oh, I'm proud of the house we built      Oh, look at us together   Oh, we've come such a long long way      Chorus(2 times)   I'm proud of the house we built   It's stronger than sticks, stones, and steel   It's not a big place sittin up high on some hill   Lot of things will come and go    But love never will   I'm proud   Yeah, I'm proud of the house we built
