Lyrics
There's a white weatherboard house
In a nice part of town
Where the garden's neat
And the lawn's well mowed
Where children play
And come and go
The kitchen's small
But large enough
There's a cast iron stove
With a fire inside
So the kids are fed
And sleep at night
Warm in their beds
It's the quarter acre dream
I'm so happy I could scream
So if you hear someone scream at night
It's because they're happy
So it's all right
There's a toilet in the washhouse
Outside by the back porch
Winter's back to soon
Cold feet on the floor
But there's a lock
Upon the door
The trees grow taller every year
Blocking out the sky
I miss seeing stars
Falling down the stairs
Tripping on mats
Slipping off chairs
It's the quarter acre dream
I'm so happy I could scream
So if you hear someone scream at night
It's because they're happy
So it's all right
