作词 : Galvin, Ingram, McCormack It started out baby, just like a dream Like teenage romance, we were head over heels I can't read the future to tell what was in store While I was sleepin', she was on out the door I can't believe that she said I was her man As she was my baby, that's when the trouble began As trouble follows you around all night and day Now that I know we'll go our separate way Don't let the screen door hit you where the good lord split you Cause time keeps tickin' away Don't let the screen door hit you where the good lord split you Cause time keeps tickin' away What happened to the promise we made For better, for worse, I think that we both said We try to work it out and stay together Then I found out, it was all spoken mirrors If you can't stand the heat, don't look in my direction Just leave the keys and take your obsession What a show you put on, yeah it's quite a disgrace Your number's on the bedroom wall, say who wants a date Don't let the screen door hit you where the good lord split you Cause time keeps tickin' away Don't let the screen door hit you where the good lord split you Cause time keeps tickin' away Cause time keeps tickin', time keeps tickin', time keeps tickin' away
