In a pickup truck we bought in 1962
|
And paid each month till it belonged to me and you
|
The cardboard boxes in the back hold everything we own
|
Things we've saved for sixteen years to start a brand new home
|
|
We're holding sixteen years of love in cardboard boxes
|
Sixteen years of laughter sweat and tears
|
We've stacked the back with happiness sadness love and cheer
|
Things we've saved together sixteen years
|
|
We sold our little dreamhouse on a small six acre farm
|
And said goodbye to friends we'll miss and fields of golden corn
|
In our search for city life where pay is big and jobs are fine
|
Sixteen years of love and tears following behind
|
|
We're holding sixteen years of love...
