Katie's sittin' on her ol' front porch
watchin' the chickens peck the ground. There ain't a whole lot goin' on tonight in this one horse town. Over yonder and comin' up the road, in a beat up Chevy truck, her boyfriend Tommy is layin' on the horn, splashin' through the mud an' the muck. Her daddy says 'He ain't worth a lick, when it comes to brains he got the short end of the stick.' But Katie's young and man she just don't care - she'd follow Tommy anywhere. She's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy. And even if they have to run away she's gonna marry that boy someday. Katie and Tommy at the drive-in movie parked in the very last row. They're too busy holdin' on to one another to even care about the show. Later on outside the Tastee Freeze Tommy slips somethin' on her hand. He says 'My high school ring will ahve to do, 'til I can buy a weddin' band.' Her daddy says 'He ain't worth a lick, when it comes to brains he got the short end of the stick.' But Katie's young and man she just don't care - she'd follow Tommy anywhere. She's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy. And even if they have to run away she's gonna marry that boy someday. Her daddy's waitin' up 'til half past ten, when they come sneakin' up the walk. He says 'Young lady get on up to your room while me and junior have a talk.' Momma breaks in and says 'Don't lose your temper, it wasn't very long ago when you yourself was just a hayseed plowboy who didn't have a road to hoe. My daddy said you wasn't worth a lick, when it came to brains you got the short end of the stick. But he was wrong and honey you are, too. Katie looks at Tommy like I still look at you.' She's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy. What's meant to be will always find a way... She's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy, she's in love with the boy. And even if they have to run away, she's gonna marry that boy someday. (Fade out |

I can see you turn away
When I ask what for You say it isn't anything But I'm not sure Something underneath the skin Won't let you be And you try to keep it in But I can see CHORUS: The woman before me Must have been hard on you 'Cause that hurt in your eyes I never put you through Sometimes I think you must be talkin' to The woman before me and you Sometimes in an argument It will show When you go a little farther than You meant to go I know you don't mean the things That you say I just wanna ease the pain That's in your way REPEAT CHORUS: If there are sorrows that bring back a tear Don't let them keep us apart You ought to know you've got nothing to fear Here in my heart 'Cause you and I will never be Like the past Whatever kind of memories That you have Nothin's gonna hurt you now Can't you see I already made a vow That I can keep REPEAT CHORUS |

Momma told her baby, girl take it real slow Girl told her momma hey I really gotta go He's waitin' in the car Momma said girl you won't get far Thus are the dreams of an average Jane Ninety miles an hour down a lovers lane On a tank of dreams Oh if she could've only seen But fate's got cards that it don't want to show And that boy's just A walkaway Joe Born to be a leaver Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her He's a wrong kinda paradise She's gonna know it in a matter of time That boy's just a walkaway Joe Now just a little while into Abilene Pulls into a station and he robs it clean She's waitin' in the car Underneath the Texaco star She only wanted love didn't bargain for this She can't help but love him for the way he is She's only seventeen And there ain't no reasoning So she'll ride this ride as far as it can go Cause that boy's just A walkaway Joe Born to be a leaver Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her He's a wrong kinda paradise She's gonna know it in a matter of time That boy's just a walkaway Joe Somewhere in a roadside motel room Alone in the silence she wakes up too soon And reaches for his arm But she'll just keep reachin' on For the cold hard truth revealed what it had known That boy's just A walkaway Joe Born to be a leaver Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her He's a wrong kinda paradise She's gonna know it in a matter of time That boy's just a walkaway Joe |

I was standing at the counter I was waiting for the change When I heard that old familiar music start It was like a lighted match Had been tossed into my soul It was like a dam had broken in my heart After taking every detour Getting lost and losing track So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back After driving out the memory Of the way things might have been After I'd forgotten all about us The song remembers when We were rolling through the Rockies We were up above the clouds When a station out of Jackson played that song And it seemed to fit the moment And the moment seemed to freeze When we turned the music up and sang along And there was a God in Heaven And the world made perfect sense We were young and were in love And we were easy to convince We were headed straight for Eden It was just around the bend And though I have forgotten all about it The song remembers when I guess something must have happened And we must have said goodbye And my heart must have been broken Though I can't recall just why The song remembers when Well, for all the miles between us And for all the time that's passed You would think I haven't gotten very far And I hope my hasty heart Will forgive me just this once If I stop to wonder how on Earth you are But that's just a lot of water Underneath a bridge I burned And there's no use in backtracking Around corners I have turned Still I guess some things we bury Are just bound to rise again For even if the whole world has forgotten The song remembers when Yeah, and even if the whole world has forgotten The song remembers when |

I'm not quite sure what's going on
But all day through, and all night long I've been thinkin' about you I've been thinkin' about you The look in your eyes When you smile that way The sound of your voice Saying my name I've been thinking about you Just keep thinking about you This single minded fascination I've got Do you call it love If you don't then what All I know is I don't know what you've done And this train of thought ain't about to jump The track that it's on In the back of my mind There's a secret place But the whole world knows by the smile on my face That I've been thinkin' about you Can't stop thinkin' about you Think about you This single minded fascination I've got Do you call it love Well if you don't then what All I know is I don't know what you've done And this train of thought ain't about to jump The track that it's on I know it's crazy Calling you this late When the only thing I wanted to say Is I've been thinkin' about you Yeah, just keep thinkin' about you Oh, I can't stop thinkin' about you Oh, I'm always thinkin' about you And I do love thinkin' about you Yeah |

He was the kind of guy who loved so unselfishly
And everyone could see what a prize he was Everyone but me I must be blind I must be the kind who don't know what they have 'Til they're all alone and sad There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye How could I have a love so fine And not know what it's worth Maybe this empty heart he left behind Is all that I deserve What kind of fool Finds a perfect jewel and can't see how it shines 'Til she's all alone and cryin' There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye How I wish I could hold him in my arms and say This time I'm gonna treat him right But it's too late There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye Bye bye baby goodbye Bye bye baby goodbye |

I've never seen two people in my life More determined to ignore the obvious We better stop thinking Let our hearts start doing the talking You'd have to be stone deaf dumb and blind Not to see what's going on with us So let's jump in And get over our fear of fallin' 'Cause what we got here Is a powerful thing It's a powerful thing More than three words And a diamond ring It can open up the heavens Make the angels sing Our love, baby, is a powerful thing We started out strangers on a two-way street Neither one of us lookin' to fall in love But we don't need us a map To know we're headed in that direction Well, it's out of our hands And over our heads It's something that's bigger than both of us Turnin' back now's completely out of the question 'Cause what we got here Is a powerful thing It's a powerful thing More than three words And a diamond ring It can open up the heavens Make the angels sing Our love, baby, is a powerful thing Stronger than the force of a driving wind Hotter than a forest fire There never has been and there never will be Nothing like the power of you and me, yeah It's a powerful thing It's a powerful thing More than three words And a diamond ring It can open up the heavens Make the angels sing Our love, baby, is a powerful thing It's a powerful thing It's a powerful thing More than three words And a diamond ring It can open up the heavens Make the angels sing Our love, baby, is a powerful thing |

If I'd have known the way that this would end
If I'd have read the last page first If I'd have had the strength to walk away If I'd have known how this would hurt I would've loved you anyway I'd do it all the same Not a second I would change Not a touch that I would trade Had I known my heart would break I'd have loved you anyway It's bittersweet to look back now At memories withered on the vine But just to hold you close to me For a moment in time I would've loved you anyway I'd do it all the same Not a second I would change Not a touch that I would trade Had I known my heart would break I'd have loved you anyway And even if I'd seen it coming You'd still've seen me running Straight into your arms I would've loved you anyway I'd do it all the same Not a second I would change Not a touch that I would trade Had I known my heart would break I would've loved you anyway I would've loved you anyway |
