Go |
|
We headed out of Kansas in a flatbed Ford |
|
Just a couple hundred dollars, you an' me an' the Lord |
|
We didn't know where we were goin' |
|
We just knew we had to go |
|
Anywhere was better than "Truvy's Hair and Nails" |
|
An' workin' at a single pump Texaco |
|
And maybe it's crazy and we should've planned better |
|
Saved a little money from the little we'd made |
|
Guess we shoulda waited for a better moment |
|
Never taken that chance and played it safe |
|
Sometimes you've got to dance with danger |
|
An' sometimes you've got to face your fears |
|
What's your life if you ain't gonna live it? |
|
Nothing but a few short years |
|
All right |
|
Well, I got a job in Pittsburgh working in a steel mill |
|
And if they hadn't gone busted, I guess we'd be there still |
|
We had a desperate situation laying in our laps |
|
Girl, I thought that you were kidding |
|
When you looked at me and said |
|
"Let's just throw a dart at that old road map" |
|
And maybe it's crazy and we should've planned better |
|
Saved a little money from the little we'd made |
|
Guess we shoulda waited for a better moment |
|
Never taken that chance and played it safe |
|
Sometimes you've got to dance with danger |
|
An' sometimes you've got to face your fears |
|
An' what's your life if you ain't gonna live it? |
|
Nothing but a few short years |
|
Here we are by our little Coleman camper, dancing by the light of the KOA |
|
Ain't it somethin' how we made it and we'd give it all back |
|
Just to chase a promise of a brand new day? |
|
And maybe it's crazy and we should've planned better |
|
Saved a little money from the little we'd made |
|
Guess we shoulda waited for a better moment |
|
Never taken that chance and played it safe |
|
Sometimes you've got to dance with danger |
|
An' sometimes you've got to face your fears |
|
An' what's your life if you ain't gonna live it? |
|
Nothing but a few short years |
|
A few short years |
|
Yeah, baby |
