I see his face sometimes out there in the crowd
In between the melodies
He's asking me when I'm coming home
After all the lights come on
And after all the folks are gone
I hit the road and close my eyes
And I imagine I'm

Walking through the front-door
Hearing "Daddy" at the top of his lungs
With his feet on the wood floor
Runnin' up to give me a hug
Yeah, that's what it's all for
And the spotlight can't replace it
In a heartbeat, man, I'd trade it
'Cause it ain't got nothing on bein'
Front-door famous

Soon as I get home seems like I'm gone again
Walking out the driveway
I see his face pressed against the screen door
Teddy bear and a juice pack
Saying, "Daddy, please come back"
It tears me up every time and
I can't wait till I'm

Walking through the front-door
Hearing "Daddy" at the top of his lungs
And his feet on the wood floor
Runnin' up to give me a hug
Yeah, that's what it's all for
The spotlight can't replace it
And in a heartbeat, man, I'd trade it
'Cause it ain't got nothing on bein'
Front-door famous

Right now I'm fifty miles away from that state line
And I ain't slowin' down until I'm on that porch and I'm

Walking through the front-door
Hearing "Daddy" at the top of his lungs
With his feet on the wood floor
Runnin' up to give me a hug
Yeah, that's what it's all for
And the spotlight can't replace it
And in a heartbeat, man, I'd trade it
'Cause it ain't got nothing on bein'
Front-door famous
