Normal People
Chris Janson Lyrics

We grow up, we get married
We transition from childhood to marriage

We get bills and it gets scary
We face the financial burdens and pressures of adulthood

We got a family plan on the phone
We have a phone plan that includes multiple lines for our family

We got a thirty-year mortgage on a home
We have a long-term mortgage on our house

We got problems, we got issues
We face various problems and challenges in life

We got bathrooms low on tissue
We sometimes run out of toilet paper in our bathrooms

We stick to gas and diesel
We use traditional gasoline and diesel fuel for our vehicles

We're just normal people
We are average, regular people living our lives

And we live for the weekend
We look forward to and enjoy our weekends

Jump off of the deep end
We take risks and enjoy living life to the fullest

In a backyard pool, keepin' it cool
We relax and stay cool in our backyard pool

Barbecue on the grill
We cook food on our outdoor grill

We got church on Sunday
We attend church services on Sundays

We got work on Monday
We have jobs that require us to work on Mondays

We're keepin' it real, keepin' it simple
We prefer to maintain a straightforward, honest, and uncomplicated lifestyle

Check it
Listen closely

We got tall grass that needs cuttin'
We have a lawn that requires regular maintenance

We got a mower that keeps us cussin'
We sometimes get frustrated when our lawn mower doesn't work properly

And that AC needs a little freon
We need to add some refrigerant to our air conditioning unit

We do our drinkin' at a bar with neon
We enjoy going to bars with neon lighting

We clock in, we clock out
We have jobs that require us to punch a time clock when we begin and end our shifts

We come home and lay on the couch
We relax on our couch after a long day at work

We grab an ice cream sandwich out the freezer
We eat ice cream sandwiches that we keep in our freezer

We ain't too right, we ain't too left
We don't align ourselves too far to either the conservative or liberal side of politics

We save our cash, we cash our checks
We save our money and cash our paychecks

We do our thing, we mind our own
We live our lives how we want to and avoid getting involved in other people's business

Our life is a country song
Our life and experiences reflect the themes and settings of a country song

Yeah, we're normal people
Once again, we are average, regular people living our lives

We're all normal people
We are not alone in our experiences and struggles; everyone faces similar challenges
