7.There Goes My Life
All he could think about was
I'm too young for this
Got my whole life ahead
Hell, I'm just a kid myself
How'm I gonna raise one?
All he could see were his dreams
Goin' up in smoke
So much for ditchin' this town
And hangin' out on the coast
Oh well, those plans are long gone.
And he said,
''There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
Might as well kiss it all good bye
There goes my life.''
A couple years of up all night
And a few thousand diapers later
That mistake he thought he made
Covers up the refrigerator.
Oh yeah, he loves that little girl.
Mamas waitin' to tuck her in
As she fumbles up those stairs
She smile back at him
Draggin' that teddy bear
Sleep tight
Blue Eyes and bouncin' curls.
And he smiles
There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you, daddy good night
There goes my life.
She has that Honda loaded down
With that Abercrombie clothes
Fifteen pairs of shoes
And his American Express
He checked the oil, slammed the hood
And said, ''You're good to go.''
She hugged 'em both
And headed off to the West Coast.
And he cried
There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you
Baby, good bye.
There goes my life.
There goes my life.
Baby, good bye.
Baby, good bye.
There goes my life...
