(Verse 1) Well, I woke up this mornin', to the sunshine through the blinds A smile from my baby, I thought I'd never find My old hound was barkin', waggin' his tail with glee Seems like the whole wide world has come back to me (Chorus) 'Cause my wife came home, my dog's alive My truck's purrin' like it's got nine lives The grass is greener, the sky's more blue Life's gettin' better, 'cause I'm back with you (Verse 2) The old Chevy's runnin' smoother than it ever did before Got a brand new engine, and that paint job I adore We’re drivin' down the highway, wind blowin' through our hair With you right beside me, there's nothin' I can't bear (Chorus) 'Cause my wife came home, my dog's alive My truck's purrin' like it's got nine lives The grass is greener, the sky's more blue Life's gettin' better, 'cause I'm back with you (Bridge) All those nights I spent alone, now feel so far away With you here in my arms again, I know you're here to stay Every road we travel down, every sunset's view I cherish every moment, spendin' it with you (Verse 3) The barn's been mended, the fields are plowed There's a song in my heart, singin' out loud We’re sittin' on the porch, watchin' the stars above Life's a little brighter, when it's filled with love (Chorus) 'Cause my wife came home, my dog's alive My truck's purrin' like it's got nine lives The grass is greener, the sky's more blue Life's gettin' better, 'cause I'm back with you (Outro) Yeah, life’s gettin' better, every single day With my wife and dog, in our little hideaway The troubles are behind us, the future’s bright and new Life's gettin' better, since I'm back with you
