There Goes My Life


All he could think about was
How I'm too young for this
Got my whole life ahead
And hell, I'm just a kid myself
How am I gonna raise one?

All he could see were his dreams
Goin' up in smoke
So much for ditchin' this town,
And hanging 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."

Couple years of up all night
And a few thousand diapers later
That mistake he thought he made
Covers up the refridgerator
Oh yeah, he loves that little girl

Momma's waiting to tuck her in
As she fumbles up those stairs
She smiles back at him, draggin' that teddy bear
Sleep tight, blue eyes and bouncing curls
And he smiled,

"There goes my life
There goes my future, my everything
I love you, Daddy, good night
There goes my life."

She had that honda loaded down
With Abercrombie clothes, and 15 pairs of shoes
And his American Express
He checked the oil, slammed the hood
Says "You're good to go."
She hugged them 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
