Dude , I’m a 37 year old man from New England , who has been hardened by poverty and long hard winters. I’ve nailed and clawed for every inch forward in life. Hardship is all we know out here in Northern New Hampshire. This rendition, of this song has me feeling things I haven’t since I was a child. Well done.
my man, I used to live up that way. I know what you mean! If you ever get a chance, check out Thirsty Moose Taphouse in Portsmouth, NH. If it's the same as it was 5 years ago, they had the best wings I ever tasted in my life. I would like to go back in time and enjoy those once again. Anyway, cheers bro
I'm a 50-year-old man, and I haven't cried in a long time. You my brother shook my whole Foundation. Somehow I feel so very free and so very sad all at the same time. You are a rather extraordinary spirit....thank you. #heavymedicine
Maybe we need tears to cleanse ourselves. Whatever has gone on in your life, remember that sometimes we need to first forgive ourselves. We can hold guilt that really doesn't belong to us, and responsibility for things that we didn't cause. Try to be especially good to yourself.
My mom passed away from Cancer 9 years ago at the age of 54. This was her favorite song and makes me think of her. You did an amazing job on this.....Kudos ❤❤
🎵 lyrics 🎵 I know they say you can't go home again I just had to come back one last time Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam But these hand prints on the front steps are mine And Up those stairs in that little back bedroom Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar And I bet you didn't know under that live oak My favorite dog is buried in the yard I thought if I could touch this place or feel it The brokenness inside me might start healing But Out here it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself If I could just come in I swear I'll leave Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that built me Mama cut out pictures of houses for years From better homes and garden magazine Plans were drawn and concrete poured And nail by nail and board by board Daddy gave life to mama's dream I thought if I could touch this place or feel it The brokenness inside me might start healing But out here it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself If I could just walk in I swear I'll leave Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that built me You leave home you move on And you do the best you can I got lost in this whole world And forgot who I am I thought if I could touch this place or feel it The brokenness inside me might start healing But out here it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself If I could juste walk in I swear I'll leave Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that built me
Thank you for the lyrics. I stopped by the house I grew up in 40 years later and asked the new owners if I could come in. The people were gracious enough to let me tour the house. So much had physical changed, but that is my safe place in my mind. So many memories are in that house.
This has always made me cry. My daddy's house was sold by the state and today marks 1 year of his death. He is a retired veteran and I will go sit with him by his headstone and play this. Thank you Teddy! Love all of yer music 🎶 ❤
The first time I heard this song, I had to just sit down and cry. Except for the second verse about how the house was built, this song is my life. I can close my eyes and see every single room, nick-nack, the pictures on the walls, and yes-my bedroom was upstairs, it’s where I did my homework and practiced playing guitar. My favorite dog ( Suki) really is buried by a tree in the old backyard. My parents are gone now, having died six months apart back in 2000. I have only been back home once since then, and remember passing by our old house and wondering what the people living there today would think if I walked up onto the front porch and knocked on the door. Hearing Teddy’s version of this song, with so much emotion, brought back more memories I hadn’t thought of in a long time...thank you for that. There is an old song by Waylon Jennings that you would knock out if the ballpark, too....”Rose in Paradise”. You have an amazing gift, Teddy, and the emotion in your voice is amazing. You don’t just enjoying singing, you don’t just use your voice...your entire soul sings, and it’s beautiful.
I absolutely love and feel this song Teddy .. we had a tough up bringing ,we didn’t have much but we all loved our house that built me and the roads we grew up in around it .. this song has helped me think , I could actually now return there since loosing Dad and Mum in the last 12 years and our house now being someone else’s house that now builds them . You are a true talent Teddy your voice is heaven sent and the songs you sing just ooze with soul and feeling ..! Thank you for sharing this song and reminding me in bad times we can go back in time remember our happy memories and begin to heal inside.. can’t wait to see you live in London February in Kentish Town England… Teddy you rock dude!😊
Tomorrow is veterans day. I miss my friends I served with that didn't come home. @Teddy Swims, this helped me. I still hurt quite a lot but this allowed me to let go and cry. You have my deepest thanks for this.
You sir, reach into my heart and your words hurt and heal and sometimes make me cry. I dont think there would be anything you couldn't sing. Blessings from 73yo lady in Australia.
Oh, Teddy. This song.... Painful childhood for me, currently trying to settle the estate and sell the house that built me. I've always loved this song, but your voice left me sobbing and really feeling it, deeply. Thank you for sharing your talents.
Absolute perfection, Teddy! That chord progression on “if I could just walk in, I swear I’d leave” was *chef’s kiss* ❤️❤️ Keep those covers coming, man. Every one is amazing. Be blessed.
Got me right in the feels. .😭 so deep. Lost both parents when I was 16 . Have walked by our old family home a few times over the years . I day dream about walking in the garden , going into my old bedroom .
OMG I love this song. I have wanted to go home to the house that built me. My father was always remodeling it and it's where he died before he finished.
Reminds me of every year since I was little, my dad and I would take a 3 day trip to the Appalachian's to Bald River Falls. Best memories of my life, love you dad ❤
This mans voice was created in heaven and inserted in Teddy’s DNA….he had to go through what he has to dislodge it! Thank God it has blossomed and touched millions! Yowza he’s stunning!😎❤️🇺🇸
Said goodbye to the house i grew up in today. after momma passed we had to give it back to the bank. I sat in the fort we built as a kid. this year has been the hardest and most alone i have ever felt.
Remember...Goodbye is never permanent. We always have the memories of everything that made us who we are today and even our future selves. Yes, some of those memories hurt, but at the end of the day...they are what led us to where we are. They taught us what not to do as well as what *to* do. After the childhood I went through...this knowledge is still what gets me through the bad times, and even the good times, that I face...even today.
Kendall, I hope that you are well. Always treasure the good memories. Do your best to keep old friendships, and keep your family connections strong. Your momma would want you to move forward, live well, be loved, and thrive.
You touched my soul and calmed my spirit just now and I thank you. I can’t wait until the day comes when we can all travel again safely and your fans can gather to watch and hear you perform in person. You have many loving fans here in Nova Scotia, Canada. Keep on keepin’ on, you Rock!
Teddy, I'm rarely at a loss for words, but you have made me sit back in my chair and cry (somewhat happy tears, more on that in a moment)... I found you literally 15 minutes ago and I am hooked. Of course, I've only listened to your covers so far, but I can't wait to listen to your originals. As for the tears... music is in me and I can find meaning in almost every song I listen to, but this particular song, Miranda Lambert's "The House That Built Me" touches the depths of my soul and elicits the most intense emotions and reactions....it has a place in my heart... I never thought I'd feel that same response by anyone other than Miranda Lambert, but before you hit the first note in the 3rd line of the first verse, the tears began to fall uncontrollably. THANK YOU so much for sharing your talent and making me feel both happy and somber (it's a good thing!). :-) I see you are going to be in Philly in just a few days...I may have to change my schedule so I can attend!
I love Miranda's voice, and this is one of my favorite songs of hers. But man, this guy gets me teary eyed too. That last chorus, his face says it all. Love it
Teddy, you're shining. Take it easy baby, as my mom, who passed this year (too soon) would say. Take care of your physical health and sanity, cause without those, truly NOTHING matters. Love you...
When you're 25 and struggling with the change of growing up and becoming an adult, this song hits different than it ever did. Absolutely well done my dude 🖤💜
Oh Teddy!! Once again, your voice is like butter! You have so much soul and always take me on the journey the song takes you on. You are the real deal! Soak up you your success because it is long overdue! You and your voice are magic!
Dangit man! 😢 My dad passed a few years ago, and my mom last year. I'm in the middle of selling the house I grew up in, and boy did this cover hit me in the feels! 😭😭😭
I don't really listen to country but I make an exception for Miranda Lambert and Pistol Annies and this is my very favorite Miranda song, it's gotten me through the last several years of grief after losing both my parents. To now have one of favorite artists cover it is more than I could've ever asked for and more... The emotional reaction I had listening to this is further proof of your phenomenal talent and just how much heart and soul you put into every note out of your mouth. Thank you guys for putting so much of yourselves into your music, it doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated.
My two sons were completely wide open boy's growing up. Now days I come home to just myself and my memories. They made our house a home. I wish just one more time I could hear them playing as I got out of my truck coming home from work.
You know when you play an old video game and it's to feel like you did when you played it first, not because it's fun? This is the same feeling this song gives me. You're a blessing, Teddy.
I’m not kidding when I saw this I did a double take this song has a huge spot in my heart coming from a little girl in wv being raised by her grandparents I was blessed thank you for reminding me teddy 🥰
Teddy, I can feel every word in your version of this song, You are so amazing, you sing from your heart and soul, love you ♥️ Teddy Swims Fan For Life 🧸🔥😎🎤⭐🎶💋
Great job as always Teddy. Touched home on this one. Pun intended. My family home was sold a few years ago. My father had built it for my mother as a wedding present. His father had given them the property as a wedding present. My sister and 2 brothers and myself grew up there. Both parents passed away there. Wonderful memories for sure. I still want to pull in the driveway and walk right in. It was HOME. Damn! I just want to give the house a hug after this song. Have a Blessed Evening All
Lyrics: I know they say you can't go home again. I just had to come back one last time. Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam. But these hand prints on the front steps are mine. Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar. And I bet you didn't know, under that live oak My favorite dog is buried in the yard. I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing. Out here it's like I'm someone else, I thought that maybe I could find myself If I could just come in I swear I'll leave. Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that built me. Mama cut out pictures of houses for years. From 'Better Homes and Garden' magazines. Plans were drawn, and concrete poured, And nail by nail and board by board Daddy gave life to mama's dream. I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing. Out here it's like I'm someone else, I thought that maybe I could find myself. If I could just come in I swear I'll leave. Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that built me. You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can. I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am. I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing. Out here it's like I'm someone else, I thought that maybe I could find myself. If I could walk around I swear I'll leave. Won't take nothing but a memory From the house that, built me.
I’m A 24 year old Girl, I Have 2 Brain Tumors, In 2020 We Had To Move Out Of My Childhood Home, Every Time We Drive Past That House I Cry, We Had So Many Memories & So Many Special People Are Associated With That House…🥺💔
I don't know why but the timing of this is sooooo perfect. I've been missing my parents for couple of days and hearing this song. I'll call them right now and check on them for sure. Thanks TEDDY
Teddy, my brother, you have a gift that the vast majority of vocalists do not possess!... You have the uncanny knack of being able to hop music styles flawlessly!
ThiS guy leaves me speechless ... I could listen to Teddy and Chris Stapleton all day and night & probably be one of the happiest people on this earth!
When I was 10, we moved to a better apartment. Thirty-six years later, I find out that the receptionist at the place where I worked has been living in my childhood apartment since the day my family moved out.
Makin' a girl weep over here. This is my song for my grandparents. Reminds me of growing up in their house; same one they still live in now. Thank you for doing this song so much justice. You brought me to tears for all the best reasons. 🖤 Keep sharing that incredible gift of yours. You're touching hearts you'll never even meet, my friend. I'm blessed to have heard this.
OH. OH. ANOTHER SONG FOR YOU: GEORGE JONES - HE STOPPED LOVING HER TODAY" OH MY GOD.....................YOU WOULD JUST MAKE IT THE BEST SINCE GEORGE DIED.... AND WE ALL MISS HIM!

@Mikael not crying, merely expressing my feelings. Seems like your uncomfortable with feelings ? That must be tough.
You're buetiful.
Teddy has that amazing effect on people!
@Mikael you should stop crying

Teddy is one of those gems, he’s able to tell a story with his voice
I appreciate live takes so much. No cuts and edits, just the raw talent and sheer magic of your great voice.
Yep, he is just that good!
He is truly amazing!!
Beyond amazing.
My mom passed away from Cancer 9 years ago at the age of 54. This was her favorite song and makes me think of her. You did an amazing job on this.....Kudos ❤❤

Sorry buddy
Damn man. Hope Everything is well❤️
🎵 lyrics 🎵
I know they say you can't go home again
I just had to come back one last time
Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam
But these hand prints on the front steps are mine
And Up those stairs in that little back bedroom
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
And I bet you didn't know under that live oak
My favorite dog is buried in the yard
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
The brokenness inside me might start healing
But Out here it's like I'm someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that built me
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
From better homes and garden magazine
Plans were drawn and concrete poured
And nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to mama's dream
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
The brokenness inside me might start healing
But out here it's like I'm someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just walk in I swear I'll leave
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that built me
You leave home you move on
And you do the best you can
I got lost in this whole world
And forgot who I am
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
The brokenness inside me might start healing
But out here it's like I'm someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could juste walk in I swear I'll leave
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that built me

❤️💙🥰
I'm crying.... This song is so sweet and makes me think of the house I grew up in.. thanks for covering this... ❤️.. but now I need to redo my mascara
Man Teddy, when I'm having a tough day or feeling down, your singing lifts me right back up brotha. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
What great vocals ! The range is so vast and the way he closes his eyes in the high notes really elevates the song....
Do true he sings from the heart
He is incredible! Look up the song Rivers, his range is a god given gift!!
Brother, I'm 54 yrs old and stumbled across u on accident and I'm glad I did . U have a gift from God and thank you for sharing your gift.
This song made me emotional his voice just touches my heart. ♥️
I really didn't hear the lyrics until I heard you sing this! Wow. Tender, powerful, dynamic, incredible. Vocals 10/10!
Absolute perfection, Teddy! That chord progression on “if I could just walk in, I swear I’d leave” was *chef’s kiss* ❤️❤️
Keep those covers coming, man. Every one is amazing. Be blessed.
Got me right in the feels. .😭 so deep. Lost both parents when I was 16 . Have walked by our old family home a few times over the years . I day dream about walking in the garden , going into my old bedroom .

Prayers for you
Natalie .... knock on the door sometime, explain yourself, bring photos to show them, and ask ... if you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
Teddy Swims, you have the most beautiful voice so keep going. Your style is incredible.
OMG I love this song. I have wanted to go home to the house that built me. My father was always remodeling it and it's where he died before he finished.
I had to grab the tissues for this one! I knew it would get me hearing Teddy sing it!😢❤️
He just closes those eyes and the magic erupts from somewhere deep within his soul. Truly amazing.

I’m so looking forward to concerts again because this man and this voice are a MUST SEE for me. *swoon*
I love all your music.. Can't wait to see you in concert ; )
Never heard this song before.

Oh Teddy!! Once again, your voice is like butter! You have so much soul and always take me on the journey the song takes you on. You are the real deal! Soak up you your success because it is long overdue! You and your voice are magic!

Amazing, just stunning!! I believe you could sing a damn phone book and make it sound great!
You know when you play an old video game and it's to feel like you did when you played it first, not because it's fun? This is the same feeling this song gives me. You're a blessing, Teddy.

I just had to come back one last time.
Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam.
But these hand prints on the front steps are mine.
Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar.
And I bet you didn't know, under that live oak
My favorite dog is buried in the yard.
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that built me.
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years.
From 'Better Homes and Garden' magazines.
Plans were drawn, and concrete poured,
And nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to mama's dream.
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself.
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that built me.
You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can.
I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am.
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself.
If I could walk around I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
From the house that, built me.
Liked it before I even watched it because I KNOW it's gonna be amazing!

Damn you BLESSED this song, didn't think I could love it more 🔥😭🎙
I don't know why but the timing of this is sooooo perfect. I've been missing my parents for couple of days and hearing this song. I'll call them right now and check on them for sure.
Thanks TEDDY
listening to you sing is like being wrapped in a sweet warm dish of velvety smooth hot cocoa with marshmallows on top... delicious ♥ ♪♫♪
Thank you. U are awesome
Teddy, my brother, you have a gift that the vast majority of vocalists do not possess!... You have the uncanny knack of being able to hop music styles flawlessly!
I’d pay to hear Teddy sing the warning label on my hairdryer 💙🐻💙

When Joe cocker went to music heaven he nominated teddy
Teddy Swims is the best singer on this planet!!!
When I was 10, we moved to a better apartment. Thirty-six years later, I find out that the receptionist at the place where I worked has been living in my childhood apartment since the day my family moved out.
Makin' a girl weep over here. This is my song for my grandparents. Reminds me of growing up in their house; same one they still live in now. Thank you for doing this song so much justice. You brought me to tears for all the best reasons. 🖤 Keep sharing that incredible gift of yours. You're touching hearts you'll never even meet, my friend. I'm blessed to have heard this.
Teddy Swims, Please Please Please to Pumped Up Kicks by Foster the People.
I wasn't going to listen and so glad I did. Thank you for touching my inner soul. Raw talent.
SORRY: ONE MORE: OTIS REDDING: "I've Been Loving You Too Long (to Stop Now)".
Hated my childhood home. But now I miss it. Home is who you are not where you are. Thanks Teddyxx
teddy swims looks like a combination of chris stapleton and post malone
I see it!
Kinda sings like that also!
So funny
I always thought Hank Williams Jr. and Post Malone
Post Stapleton
Teddy stole into my soul and blew it up. My passion for this man's feel is like a tidal wave. I've lost control 👫
OH. OH. ANOTHER SONG FOR YOU: GEORGE JONES - HE STOPPED LOVING HER TODAY" OH MY GOD.....................YOU WOULD JUST MAKE IT THE BEST SINCE GEORGE DIED.... AND WE ALL MISS HIM!
Yes yes yes
One of my favorite songs and I was so excited to hear him sing it. I was not disappointed. It is great. Thank you Mr. Swims.
I balled my eyes all the way through this as we just sold our family home and my mother passed away late last year… What a beautiful song!
Teddy can cover "ANY" song and make it his own. You feel it
