Two Pink Lines

Eric Church/Victoria Shaw


She was pacin' back and forth on her front porch
I pulled up slingin' gravel in my daddy's Ford
She cried all the way to Johnson's store
I kept the motor runnin' and parked by the door

Yeah, I was foolish and wild
She was classic and regal
We were fresh out of school both barely legal
We were young and on fire and just couldn't wait
Six weeks in, she was three weeks late

One means none, and we're home free
Two means three and a diamond ring

Yeah, wonder what fate is gonna decide
We're just sittin' 'round waitin' on two pink lines
Sittin' 'round waitin' on two pink lines

Yeah, her daddy's gonna kill me, and that's a fact
Maybe we'll just leave town and never come back
Or I could stand there and tell him
Face him like a man
Aww, who am I kiddin'
He'll never understand

Yeah, that second hand just keeps slowin' down
I swear it stopped twice the last time around

Yeah, we'll know the truth in three minutes time
We're just sittin' 'round waitin' on two pink lines
Sittin' 'round waitin' on two pink lines

Hot summer nights
Whisperin' her name
Under a blanket by the riverbank
Hearts beating fast
We never thought twice
As she pulled me close
And I held on tight

When the moment of truth finally comes
She gives me a look and then comes undone
She says, 'Looks like we're lucky'
'Someone's smilin' down'
She grabs her coat
And says, 'See 'ya around'

Yeah, these days the rabbit doesn't die
You just sit around waitin' on two pink lines
Prayin' that fate is on your side
Sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines
Sittin' 'round waitin' on two pink lines
