  Verse 1

  You tied that foil to the wire Just to watch it catch the light And every time the wind gets higher You laugh and say it's still alright

  Pre-chorus

  You turn the plainest thing to gold Been that way since way back when Everybody wants you told

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, shine your flag tonight Bright as any beacon burning fierce and right Nobody dims a spirit built this bright Agnes, we are cheering, hold that light

  Verse 2

  That old gate has seen you dancing Kicking dust up past the fence Every year you're still advancing Never one to sit on the fence

  Pre-chorus

  You turn the plainest thing to gold Been that way since way back when Everybody wants you told

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, shine your flag tonight Bright as any beacon burning fierce and right Nobody dims a spirit built this bright Agnes, we are cheering, hold that light

  Bridge

  Stomp your boots and clap your hands We came to sing your name out loud Whatever comes, however life lands We're glad you're standing in this crowd

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, shine your flag tonight Bright as any beacon burning fierce and right Nobody dims a spirit built this bright Agnes, we are cheering, hold that light

  Outro

  Tie another flag up on the wire Let it catch the wind and fly

  Verse 1

  Two cups left out on the bench Train never came, we didn't mind Time slows down when you're around You're the best thing I ever could find

  Pre-chorus

  So let the candles catch the light Let every voice out on the street Rise up and sing tonight

  Chorus

  Agnes, Agnes, pour the tea You make the whole room feel at home Nobody lights a place like you do Agnes, wherever you go

  Verse 2

  Years go by like passing trains But you stay steady, you stay true Every station that we've waited at Was better just with you

  Chorus

  Agnes, Agnes, pour the tea You make the whole room feel at home Nobody lights a place like you do Agnes, wherever you go

  Bridge

  Here's to the ones who stayed Here's to the cups we raise Here's to you, plain and true Here's to your name, your days

  Chorus

  Agnes, Agnes, pour the tea You make the whole room feel at home Nobody lights a place like you do Agnes, wherever you go

  Outro

  Leave the cups out on the bench We'll wait as long as we need to

  Verse 1

  You kick your boots off at the door Track mud across the kitchen floor Nobody minds the mess you make We'd rather have you than a spotless place

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, raise a cheer Agnes, this is finally your year Nothing in this house runs right Till you come stomping in tonight

  Verse 2

  That old umbrella's ripped in two Still you hold it out for me and you Storms don't scare you, never did You just laugh and wade right in

  Pre-chorus

  So blow the candles, make a wish Let somebody else wash up the dish Tonight the whole room's asking for

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, raise a cheer Agnes, this is finally your year Nothing in this house runs right Till you come stomping in tonight

  Bridge

  Every year you show up anyway Rain or shine, you find a way We're better simply having you around Both feet planted, steady on the ground

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Agnes, raise a cheer Agnes, this is finally your year Nothing in this house runs right Till you come stomping in tonight

  Outro

  So line your boots up, take a bow We're glad you're standing with us now
