LYRICS
Verse
Her mamma threw me off her front porch, when I was seventeen
She didn’t want her little darling girl to be seen about town with me
Her daddy said I had a lot of nerve asking for her hand
And that I'd not amount to much, and I was not in their family plans
Pre-Chorus
Now, Mom and Dad smile, new days have just begun
Sitting on that front porch, rocking their new grandson
Chorus
Life is a funhouse ride, it takes you down, and then it comes up right
When we finally think we’ve figured it out, just blink and it turns about
Oh, life is a funhouse ride, life is … life is … a funhouse ride
Twists and turns, swinging side to side
Life is a funhouse ride
Verse
Well, they said, "Hey boy, you don't belong here, you're in over your head
Don't waste your time playing that guitar, go get a job instead
Cause someone coming from where you do, kid, don't stand a snowball's chance.”
Then they laughed and turned and walked away, without a second glance
Pre-Chorus
But now, they’re promoting me, yeah, things have swung around
I got this record and I’m rocking this old house down
Chorus
Life is a funhouse ride, it takes you down, and then it comes up right
When we finally think we’ve figured it out, just blink and it turns about
Oh, life is a funhouse ride, life is … life is … a funhouse ride
Twists and turns, swinging side to side
Life is a funhouse ride
Bridge
Never thought it’d go like this, but if I’d given up, there’s a lot I’d miss
Life is fun house ride for sure, no need to wait gotta get on board
Chorus
Life is a funhouse ride, it takes you down, and then it comes up right
When we finally think we’ve figured it out, just blink and it turns about
Oh, life is a funhouse ride, life is … life is … a funhouse ride
Twists and turns, swinging side to side
Life is a funhouse ride … a fun house ride
