When the rain comes down
Through the hole in the roof
And every nail in the house
Is coming loose

A 'For Sale' sign stuck in the yard
The day it sells is gonna break her heart

She knows I'm out there doing the best I can
Trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands
We work and scrape and fight and pray until it hurts
I lean on her, she leans on me
That's what we do
When ends don't meet

When I drag it home
Dead on my feet
If she worries at all
She don't let on to me

Her simple smile can say so much
Her ten dollar dress looks like a million bucks

She knows I'm out there doing the best I can
Trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands
We work and scrape and fight and pray until it hurts
I lean on her, she leans on me
That's what we do
When ends don't meet

We hold on a little longer
A little tighter, a little stronger
We love a little deeper
And we dance across the kitchen

She knows I'm out there doing the best I can
Trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands
We work and scrape, we fight and pray until it hurts
I lean on her, she leans on me
That's what we do
Yeah, that's what we do
When ends don't meet
When ends don't meet
