Cheap Seats

Two five-gallon buckets turned upside down on the river bank
A pair of beach chairs parked right out there in the driveway
Singin long to Springsteen way up in the nosebleeds
Out in section 302
Girl I swear we could be anywhere
And there'd be no better view
Livin life in the cheap seats
Nothin fancy but it's fine by me
Don't take much to make a memory
Does it, darlin'
Ridin' high on a wing and a prayer
Couple kids, a couple folding chairs
Times are tough but baby if you're there
That's a bargain
It ain't much but it's enough
Baby, we got all we need
You and me livin' life in the cheap seats
Friday night bleachers, boys are going for it 4th and 2
Listening to the preacher from a small-town worn-out pew
Blanket on the ground, tire swing hanging down
Dropped tailgate covered in rust
It might not be the finer things
But I don't mind because
The two of us are sitting pretty just
Livin life in the cheap seats
Nothin fancy but it's fine by me
Don't take much to make a memory
Does it, darlin'
Ridin' high on a wing and a prayer
Couple kids, a couple folding chairs
Times are tough but baby if you're there
That's a bargain
It ain't much but it's enough
Baby, we got all we need
You and me livin' life in the cheap seats
No matter what we do
Girl I'm a rich man if I'm sitting right next to you
Livin life in the cheap seats
Nothin fancy but it's fine by me
Don't take much to make a memory
Does it, darlin'
Ridin' high on a wing and a prayer
Couple kids, a couple folding chairs
Times are tough but baby if you're there
That's a bargain
It ain't much but it's enough
Baby, we got all we need
You and me livin' life in the cheap seats
Life in the cheap seats
