The Night Before (Life Goes On)

[Verse 1] Sitting up on the roof Sneaking a smoke by the chimney Checking out the moon And the city lights He takes off his flannel shirt And he drapes it around her shoulders Slides up behind her and holds on tight And she says "I do not want this night to end Why does it have to end?" [Chorus] Tomorrow she will be rolling down I-10 Baton Rouge, LSU 18 years in her rear view He has got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block At daddy's shop It is not much but it is a job They have been dreading this moment all summer long The night before Life goes on [Verse 2] Ooh A tear falls off her cheek and Right when it hit is his arm he says "Come on baby Let us get out of here" They take one last drive around town And mean it Already looks different He bangs the wheel and says "Life is not fair And this growing up stuff man I do not know I just do not want to let you go" [Chorus] [Verse 3] Yeah that is what my momma told me And just like those kids I did not want to listen to no one Yea there is nothing you can do There is nothing you can say And I know how it feels when love goes away [Chorus] Tomorrow shell be rolling down I-10 Baton Rouge LSU 18 years in her rear-view He has got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block At daddy's shop It is not much but it is a job They have been dreading this moment all summer long But here it is They do not have long The night before Life goes on Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah
