Uncle Carter's coming up this weekend
He says he's missing us and he's not sleeping
And finding time to throw some chords at me's like pulling teeth
Mmm

There's always a light on
Always a sad song
Waiting for us at the door

There's no time for bad days
When an old friend comes to stay
Who's got troubles anymore?

Winter or summertime
You know we don't mind
Actually, We're lucky for the time we have
It's so good to see ya

He's always strumming that old beat up Gibson
A Missing string and pick guard he stopped fixing
But he could sing the phone book and I'd listen
Patiently

There's always a light on
Always a sad song
Waiting for us at the door

There's no time for bad days
When an old friend comes to stay
Who's got troubles anymore?

Winter or summertime
You know we don't mind
Actually, We're lucky for the time we have
It's so good to see ya
