The first song I wrote. I also have a duet version of this song
A Princess to Share their Crown
© 2018 Jeff Ledbetter Music
IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
I'M ROLLING CLOSE TO HOME
STARING OUT MY WINDSHIELD
DOWN A DARK AND DUSTY ROAD
IT FEELS LIKE A LIFETIME
SINCE I HELD YOU CLOSE TO ME
WAKING UP BESIDE YOU
JUST TO KISS YOU WHILE YOU SLEEP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WE MAY NOT HAVE A MANSION
OR ALOT OF FANCY THINGS
BUT WE'VE GOT A PASSION IN OUR HEARTS
AND A BRAND NEW SONG TO SING
MEN HAVE SEARCHED FOR AGES
JUST TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND
A LOT OF LOVE AND A LITTLE LUCK
AND A PRINCESS TO SHARE THIER CROWN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Female Verse for duet)
HONEY I SIT HERE WAITING
WISHING YOU WAS HERE
YOU KNOW YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING
THE ONE THING I HOLD DEAR
PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME
I'LL NEVER LET YOU DOWN
I LOVE OUR TIME TOGETHER
AND THE MAGIC THAT WE FOUND
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WE MAY NOT HAVE A MANSION
OR ALOT OF FANCY THINGS
BUT WE'VE GOT A PASSION IN OUR HEARTS
AND A BRAND NEW SONG TO SING
MEN HAVE SEARCHED FOR AGES
JUST TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND
A LOT OF LOVE AND A LITTLE LUCK
AND A PRINCESS TO SHARE THIER CROWN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LETS TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE
ON THE FRONT PORCH SWING
WITH A GLASS OF LEMONADE
AND A GENTLE COUNTRY BREEZE
WITH YOU I'M IN HEAVEN
WALKING STREETS OF GOLD
THANKFUL FOR THE BLESSING
I LOVE YOU HEART AND SOUL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WE MAY NOT HAVE A MANSION
OR ALOT OF FANCY THINGS
BUT WE'VE GOT A PASSION IN OUR HEARTS
AND A BRAND NEW SONG TO SING
MEN HAVE SEARCHED FOR AGES
JUST TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND
A LOT OF LOVE AND A LITTLE LUCK
AND A PRINCESS TO SHARE THIER CROWN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WE MAY NOT HAVE A MANSION
OR ALOT OF FANCY THINGS
BUT WE'VE GOT A PASSION IN OUR HEARTS
AND A BRAND NEW SONG TO SING
MEN HAVE SEARCHED FOR AGES
JUST TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND
A LOT OF LOVE AND A LITTLE LUCK
AND A PRINCESS TO SHARE THIER CROWN

I don’t get the title and the line, “A princess to share their crown”. Do most men think they have a crown?

It pretty much a reversal of a lady waiting on her Prince Charming to come riding up on a white horse. Prince Charming was also looking for the perfect lady to be his princess to share his kingdom with. The term 'sharing" in this song is not in the context of having one crown that they take turns with. Its about sharing their life. two people that work together as one. A king has his queen, a prince has his princess and a man wants to find that perfect lady to share his kingdom with. And many men never find that special someone. This song is about a couple who lucky enough to find that perfect person in one another. They don't have much but they have all they need in each other. And When you do find them they should be treasured

Great for your first time out. Be careful of your spelling of "their" throughout the song.
