Eighteen years in a traveling band
Seen a lot of one night stands
But still I find myself so very much aloneAnd it took those years to find myself
Wasn't lookin' for no one else
And then I found you girl
But you were there all alongAnd we'll spend each day
Like it's the last day of the rest of our livesI'll be the king you'll be my wife
Gonna make it through this thing called life
Gonna raise these kids on our own
The very best we canAnd sixteen hours is a long, long time
When you gotta love that's on your mind
Can you tell me that I'm not right?
I'm a little distraughtAnd we'll spend each day
Like it's the last day of the rest of our lives
Everyday we'll fall in love just a little more
For the rest of our livesSittin' here in the county jail
Ain't no one to go to my bail
I shoulda been there with you
For some sympathy and teaAnd eighteen years in a traveling band
Seen a lot of one night stands
And still I find myself so very much alone(Repeat Chorus)
