It Takes More Than A Hammer And Nails

     
 

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more that a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes a firm foundation built on faith and love
With a whole lot of guidance from up above
Show your neighbor what a friend is for
With an open heart and an open door
Your first one reaches for its' mothers' breasts
Knows up from down and east from west

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more that a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more that a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes a firm foundation build on truth and thrust
So your wood won't rot and your nails won't rust
You for first one reaches for its' mothers' breasts
He knows up from down, east from west
Show your neighbor what a friend is for
With an open heart and an open door

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more that a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more that a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
