Cooked peas in a pot, thick as theives
Never saw me without her
So much for the way things were
We blew up, she blew by
I ain't seen her since it all went south
She don't call, she don't swing by
She don't even know if I'm dead or alive
We were burnin' it up like Bonnie and Clyde
Takin' on the world, baby, side by side
Born to be together
And lettin' the good times roll
She changed her tune while I was busy strummin'
We got so close I didn't see it comin'
The hot time in this old town sure turned cold
Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole
Saw her momma at the store, she wouldn't speak
And her danged ol' daddy burned a hole through me
You won't know it if you seen us at the mall
That I was gonna be their son-in-law
It's almost like I never met her
She can write me off if it makes her feel better
Our love is dead but I didn't die
You can't take back that five year ride
We were burnin' it up like Bonnie and Clyde
Takin' on the world, baby, side by side
Born to be together
And lettin' the good times roll
She changed her tune while I was busy strummin'
We got so close I didn't see it comin'
The hot tme in this old town sure turned cold
Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole
We were burnin' it up
Like Bonnie and Clyde
Takin' on the world
Side by side
She changed her tune while I was busy strummin'
We got so close I didn't see it comin'
The hot time in this old town sure turned cold
Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole
With a ten foot pole,
Pole
We were 'bout as tight as we could be Cooked peas in a pot, thick as theives Never saw me without her So much for the way things were We blew up, she blew by I ain't seen her since it all went south She don't call, she don't swing by She don't even know if I'm dead or alive We were burnin' it up like Bonnie and Clyde Takin' on the world, baby, side by side Born to be together And lettin' the good times roll She changed her tune while I was busy strummin' We got so close I didn't see it comin' The hot time in this old town sure turned cold Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole Saw her momma at the store, she wouldn't speak And her danged ol' daddy burned a hole through me You won't know it if you seen us at the mall That I was gonna be their son-in-law It's almost like I never met her She can write me off if it makes her feel better Our love is dead but I didn't die You can't take back that five year ride We were burnin' it up like Bonnie and Clyde Takin' on the world, baby, side by side Born to be together And lettin' the good times roll She changed her tune while I was busy strummin' We got so close I didn't see it comin' The hot tme in this old town sure turned cold Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole We were burnin' it up Like Bonnie and Clyde Takin' on the world Side by side She changed her tune while I was busy strummin' We got so close I didn't see it comin' The hot time in this old town sure turned cold Hell, now I couldn't touch her with a ten foot pole With a ten foot pole, Pole Explain Request ×
