The Night Before (Life Goes On)

Sittin` up on the roof

Sneakin` a smoke by the chimney

Checkin` out the moon

And the city lights

He takes off his flannel shirt

And drapes it around her shoulders

Slides up behind her and holds on tight

And she says:

I don`t want this night to end

Why does it have to end

Tomorrow she'll be rollin down I-10

Baton Rouge, LSU

18 years in her rearview

He's got a friday paycheck lined up down the block

At daddy's shop

It ain`t much but its a job

They`ve been dreadin` this moment all summer long

The night before

Life goes on

Oooh

A tear falls off her cheek and

Right when it hits his arm he says

Come on baby

Let`s get outta here

They take one last drive around town

And man it

Already looks different

He bangs the wheel and says

Life ain`t fair

And this growin up stuff man I dont know

I just don`t wanna let you go

Tomorrow she`ll be rollin down I-10

Baton Rouge,LSU

18 years in her rearview

Hes got a friday paycheck lined up down the block

At daddy's shop

It ain`t much but its a job

They`ve been dreadin this moment all summer long

The night before

Life goes on

Yeah thats what my momma told me

And just like those kids

I didn`t wanna listen to no one

Yea theres nothin` you can do

Theres nothin you can say

And I know how it feels when love goes away

Tomorrow she`ll be rollin down I-10

Baton Rouge,LSU

18 years in her rearview

He`s got a friday paycheck lined up down the block

At daddy's shop

It ain`t much but its a job

They`ve been dreadin this moment all summer long

But here it is

They don`t have long

The night before

Life goes oonn.....

Yeah e yeah e yeah e yeah e yeahhhh
