i'm proud of the house we built lyrics

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
