Eighteen years in a traveling band
Seen a lot of one night stands
And still I found myself so very much alone
And it took those years to find myself
Wasnt lookin for no one else
And then I found you girl
But you were there all along
And well spend each day like its the last day of the rest of our lives
Ill be the king youll be my wife
Gonna make it thru this thing called life
Gonna raise these kids on our own
The very best we can
And sixteen hours is a long, long time
When you gotta love thats on your mind
Can you tell that Im not right?
Im a little distraught
And well spend each day like its the last day of the rest of our lives
Everyday well fall in love just a little more
For the rest of our lives
Sittin here in the county jail
Aint no one to go my bail
I shoulda been there with you
For some sympathy and tea
And eighteen years in at traveling band
Seen a lot of one night stands
And still I found myself so very much alone
Repeat chorus
