It Doesn't Matter Much Lyrics - Singles - Steve Forbert

I cover ground and get around a lot these days 

And I meet a lotta people too 

An' if it takes a broken heart to know one, well 

I'm seein' lotsa shades of blue, shades of blue 

The wealthy part of town done got the Yuletide bug 

And the decoration store does fine 

But sometimes on a dark and country backwoods road 

I pass a little shack that shines, shack that shines 

It doesn't matter much what kind of house you got 

As long as it's a happy home 

Or if your lover's love ain't burnin' blue flame hot 

As long as you don't feel alone, feel alone 

What kind of house you got won't make it real or not 

What kind of car you drive won't keep your love alive 

What kind of house you got won't make it real or not 

What kind of car you drive won't keep your love alive 

The stairway up to heaven's made of rough hewn boards 

And Christ is on a hard, nail throne 

I wonder, stuck in traffic with a low fuel light 

If there's time to change the road we're on, road we're on 

It doesn't matter much what kind of house you got 

As long as it's a happy home 

Or if your lover's love ain't burnin' blue flame hot 

As long as you don't feel alone 

It doesn't matter much what kind of house you got 

As long as it's a happy home 

Or if your lover's love ain't burnin' blue flame hot 

As long as you don't feel alone, feel alone
