She was pacing back and forth on her front porch
|
I pulled up slinging gravel in my Daddy's Ford
|
She cried all the way to Johnson's store
|
I kept the motor running and parked by the door
|
|
Yeah I was foolish and wild
|
she was classic and regal
|
we were fresh out of school, both barely legal
|
we were young and on fire and just couldn't wait
|
six weeks in, she was three weeks late
|
|
one means none and we're home free
|
two means three and a diamond ring
|
yeah i wonder what fate is gonna decide
|
we're just sittin around waiting on two pink lines
|
sitting around waiting on two pink lines
|
|
yeah her Daddy's gonna kill me and thats a fact
|
maybe we'll just leave town and never come back
|
or I could stand there and tell him
|
face him like a man
|
oh who am I kidding, he'll never understand
|
|
yeah thats second hand just keeps slowing down
|
i swear it stopped twice the last time around
|
yeah we'll know the truth in three minutes time
|
we're just sittin around waiting on two pink lines
|
sitting around waiting on two pink lines
|
|
hot summer nights, whispering her name
|
under the blanket by the river bank
|
hearts beating fast we never thought twice
|
but she pulled me close and i held on tight
|
|
when the moment of truth finally comes
|
she gives me a look and then comes undone
|
she says looks like were lucky
|
someones smiling down
|
she grabs her coat and says see ya around
|
|
yeah these days the rabbit doesn't die
|
you just sit around waiting on two pink lines
|
praying that fate is on your side
|
sitting around waiting on two pink lines
|
sitting around waiting on two pink lines
|
