Sticks and Stones - Tracy Lawrence

You can take the house and everything in it Keep the diamond ring cause thats how I meant it Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me This material life with all it’s value

Don’t mean a thing to me without you

The love that we once had is all I need

So take everything we have if it makes you happy

But darlin let me say before I leave

These sticks and stones ain’t all that makes a home

They don’t have arms to hold you when love goes wrong

Now you say, we are through

These sticks and stones may break me,

But the words you said just tore my heart in two

Remember when we didn’t have a dime between us You took my hand and said we don’t needmuch

Just as long as we’re together we would be fine

Now we’ve acquired all I thought would please you

I gave everything you know that I could

And still you’re telling me you’re not satisfied

So take everything we have if it makes you happy

But darlin let me say before I leave

These sticks and stones may break me,

But the words you said just tore my heart in two
