Good friends help when my back's up against one
Good songs shake them when the home team wins one
Best bars are the little bitty hole in the walls
Everybody's grandma's house had your picture up
Few of us had that cash middle finger taped
Up on our high school second floor bedroom walls

And brick by brick I built around my heart
And that barbed wire top made getting in real hard
But one night of holdin' you
Did what a wreckin' ball just couldn't
Come and kiss me one more time and watch them fall
'Cause damn you sure know
how to take down a man's walls
Yeah you do

Baby I wanna know what makes you climb up them
Come to your rescue when a few close in
Dance into a kiss maybe knock
a few 8 x 10s off my walls

And brick by brick I built around my heart
And that barbed wire top made getting in real hard
But one night of holdin' you
Did what a wreckin' ball just couldn't
Come and kiss me one more time and watch them fall
'Cause damn you sure know
how to take down a man's walls
Take down a man's walls

Oh, and brick by brick I built around my heart
And that barbed wire top made getting in real hard
But one night of holdin' you
Did what a wreckin' ball just couldn't
Come and kiss me one more time and watch them fall
'Cause damn you sure know
how to take down a man's walls
Down a man's walls
Yeah you knock 'em down
