We Didn’t Have Much

Justin Moore

Tonka trucks and G.I. Joes

Jumping those hills with Luke and Bo

Plastic cap guns and a swimming hole

Don’t get no dirt on your church clothes

Win or lose, we cheer for the Braves

Ten percent in the offering plate

Sunday chicken and a NASCAR race

Sure’d be nice to get back to that place

There was dirt on daddy’s clothes

From putting that bacon on mama’s stove

Dog barking in the yard at a truck we don’t know

All we had was us

And that little bitty house and a lotta love

We had it all when we didn’t have much

Eighteen, left it all behind

Chasing a girl, chasing a dime

Went so far tryna get mine

I can’t see that old porch light

That led me home at night

There was dirt on daddy’s clothes

From putting that bacon on mama’s stove

Dog barking in the yard at a truck we don’t know

All we had was us

And that little bitty house and a lotta love

We had it all when we didn’t have much

When we didn’t have much

I can still hear grandma reading

That red letter Book of John

I can still smell coffee in the kitchen

With old Don Williams on

And there was dirt on daddy’s clothes

From putting that bacon on mama’s stove

Dog barking in the yard at a truck we don’t know

All we had was us

And that little bitty house and a lotta love

We had it all when we didn’t have much

Had it all when we didn’t have much

Little bitty house and a lotta love

We had it all when we didn’t have much

Review

This is a nostalgic ode to the past. Conjuring images of dusty roads and small-town living, the tune feels a bit like a homecoming. Moore waxes poetically about the good old days and tries to answer the question of if people can ever truly go home again.
