Outlaw and the Girl

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bright lights on a county fairground night A girl with a steer twice her size Seventeen years old with a crooked little grin Said he knew right then in his eyes I thought he was trouble, thought he was a flirt But somethin' in that boy felt like home [Chorus] We were just two kids they said wouldn't last Look at us now, thirty-nine years passed Through the storms and the sunshine, we held on tight Built a love that country songs are made of A forever kind of love [Verse 2] Eighteen and twenty-one when we said I do Nothin' but a promise and a prayer He'd never had a place to call his own 'Til I met him standin' there So we made our own roots in the Texas ground Three little hearts came runnin' around [Chorus] We were just two kids they said wouldn't last Look at us now, thirty-nine years passed Through the storms and the sunshine, we held on tight Built a love that country songs are made of A forever kind of love [Bridge] Junior, you're the hardest workin' man I know Heart of gold and a soul that won't slow [Verse 3] Two boys and a daughter, your pride shinin' through Outlaw 2.0 kickin' dust down the road Every friend you've ever had, you'd give 'em the shirt 'Cause that's just the man that you are You were never just a player, you were always the one My high school sweetheart, my sun [Chorus] We were just two kids they said wouldn't last Look at us now, thirty-nine years passed Through the storms and the sunshine, we held on tight Built a love that country songs are made of A forever kind of love [Outro] Junior, you're my home, and I'm yours too Just because, I still choose you
