She Was

She started her new life ten dollars in debt

That's all it took to get started back then

A trip to the courthouse across the state line

No one could stop her, she'd made up her mind

He was eighteen, she wasn'tBut she said she was and never thought twice

Came back home as my daddy's wife

She just shook her head when her momma said

"Are you sure he's the one?", She wasHe took a job and farmed on the side

He made the ends meet, but she kept 'em tied

Changes were coming to their little world

She said, "What would you like, a boy or a girl"

And he said, "Are you?"She said she was and never thought twice

'Bout takin the next step in building their lives

Soon there were three and she tried to be

Everything to us and she wasThose precious moments turned into years

In what seemed like the blink of an eye

I held her hand as I leaned down to ask her

"Momma, are you ready to say goodbye"And she said she was but she thought twice

Holdin' my hand as she let go life

Daddy always said a woman like her

Would be hard to give up and she was, she was

If there ever was a picture of love, she was
