Sitting up on the roof sneaking a smoke by the chimney
Checking out the moon and the city lights
Takes off his flannel shirt drapes it around her shoulders
Slides up behind her and holds on tight (and she says)
I dont want this night to end why does it have to end
Chorus:
Tomorrow shell be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge LSU eighteen years in her rearview
Hes got a Friday paycheck lined up
Down the block Daddys shop it aint much but its a job
Theyve been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before life goes on
A tear falls off her cheek right when it hits his arm (he says)
C mon baby lets get out of here
They take one last drive round town man it already looks different
He bangs the wheel says Life Aint Fair
This growing up stuff man I dont knowjust dont wanna let you go
Bridge:
Thats what my mama told me and just like those kids I didnt
I didnt wanna listen to no one
Theres nothing you can do nothing you can say I know how it feels
When love goes away
Repeat chorus
Outro:
Theyve been dreading this moment all summer long
But here it is they dont have longthe night before life goes on
