Sugarland - Very Last Country Song lyrics

Today is my birthday and all that i want
Is to dig through this big box of pictures
In my kitchen 'til the daylight's gone
This one here's my mama
With the long, brown hair
I'm 40 years older today than she
Was in that picture there

But, if life stayed the way it was
And lovers never fell out of love
If memories didn't last so long
If nobody did nobody wrong
If we knew what we had before it was gone
If every road led back home this would be
The very last country song

These are all my babies
Lord knows how we survived
The first one was hard and
That last wasn't planned what a big surprise
That's him with his daddy's eyes


I loved the man in this one
It's faded but I don't care
There are nights when i wake up and
Know he's beside me i swear
Sometimes i still feel him there

But, if life stayed the way it was
And lovers never fell out of love
If memories didn't last so long
If nobody did nobody wrong
If we knew what we had before it was gone
If every road led back home this would be
The very last country song

If we knew what we had before it was gone
If every road led back home
This would be the very last country song
