Chris Ledoux "Our First Year" |
Winter winds were blowing When we loaded that old truck With a few things we had and all our dreams With my new bride there beside me We headed down the road I would show her places and things she'd never seen First we went to Denver Fort Worth and San Antone She cheered me on at every rodeo Then Houston finally ended then right after San Angelo I didn't have to tell her, cause she knew that we were broke She never complained when the wins didnt come She just took it all in stride And if I worked good to get the dust, she was just as proud She was happy being by my side Then in California, the baby started showing And all her clothes were getting way to small We couldnt spare the money to buy her any new ones She just wore my shirt and jeans and didn't mind at all Early in the mornings, we'd wake up by the road side I'd build a fire and she's get out the eggs She'd cook us up some breakfast and we'd just down there on grass Lord those were some of the best meals, well I guess I ever ate She never complained when the wins didnt come She just took it all in stride And if I worked good and bit the dust, she was just as proud She was happy being by my side Well now those days are over somehow we got ahead That little gal I married, well she's still here with me We finally got the house we planned Down a long stream And all those old hard times are just cherished memories She never complained when the wins didnt come She just took it all in stride And if I worked good to get the dust, she was just as proud She was happy being by my side Yeah she was happy being by my side Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
