A Hundred And One — текст песни (Ronna Reeves)

(Mary Ann Kennedy/Kye Fleming/Rich Wayland)

Bobby still drives that old pickup truck
He had back in high school
Says he won`t trade it in
`Cause they don`t make `em like they used to
His wife Donna got a picture of Elvis
By the clock in the kitchen
Her hair and clothes come back in style
Every now and then
They made a promise on their wedding day
Nothing`s gonna take this feeling away

Let the world turn
Years drift by
The fire will burn in their hearts just as bright
Time may take it`s toll
But their love won`t grow old
And if they live to be a hundred and one
They`re still gonna die young

Bobby spent years fixin` wheels and brakes
At the Texaco on the highway
Donna kept the kids
And did permanent waves
At the beauty shop on Fridays
It`s been forty years
But who`d ever know
It`s just the way they carried on
The same two kids as much in love
As the day they married on
They made a promise on their wedding day
Nothing`s gonna take this feeling away

Let the world turn
Years drift by
The fire will burn
And their hearts just as bright
Time may take it`s toll
But their love won`t grow old
And if they live to be a hundred and one
They`re still gonna die young
They`re gonna die young
