Lyrics
I’m not a licensed architect
But I do know a good foundation
And so I’ve planned a little home
And I won’t stand for much alteration
It’s what I’ve had in mind
for me and the one I find
Refrain
The dream I’m building is Early American
Something that won’t go out of style
It makes you feel that life’s worth living
The way they must have felt that first Thanksgiving
You sure get sold on this Early American
After you’ve looked around awhile
So, I’m building a dream for someone
Who likes Early American, too
