Suds in the Bucket

[00:06.35] She was in the backyard
[00:08.09] Say it was a little past nine
[00:11.33] When her prince pulled up
[00:14.17] A white pickup truck
[00:18.06] Her folks should've seen it coming
[00:19.65] It was only just a matter of time
[00:23.23] Plenty old enough
[00:26.25] And you can't stop love
[00:29.64] She stuck a note on the screen door, "Sorry, but I got to go"
[00:35.00] And that was all she wrote
[00:37.87] Her mama's heart was broke
[00:40.98] And that was all she wrote
[00:43.91] So the story goes
[00:47.48] Now her daddy's in the kitchen
[00:49.35] Staring out the window
[00:50.71] Scratching and a racking his brains
[00:53.53] How could 18 years just up and walk away?
[00:59.31] Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
[01:02.37] Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
[01:05.39] She left the suds in the bucket
[01:07.09] And the clothes hanging out on the line
[01:10.95]
[01:17.09] Now don't you wonder what the preacher's
[01:18.72] Gonna preach about Sunday morn?
[01:22.33] Nothing quite like this has happened here before
[01:28.28] Well he must have been a looker
[01:30.95] Smooth talking son of a gun
[01:34.14] For such a grounded girl
[01:36.80] To just up and run
[01:40.19] 'Cause you can't fence time, and you can't stop love
[01:46.52] Now all the biddy's in the beauty shop gossip going non-stop
[01:50.18] Sipping on pink lemonade
[01:52.65] How could 18 years just up and walk away?
[01:58.62] Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
[02:01.71] Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
[02:04.52] She left the suds in the bucket
[02:06.19] And the clothes hanging out on the line
[02:09.77] Yoo-hoo!
[02:11.69]
[02:39.96] She's got her pretty little bare feet hanging out the window
[02:43.14] And they're heading up to Vegas tonight
[02:46.01] How could 18 years just up and walk away?
[02:51.85] Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
[02:54.90] Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
[02:57.78] She left the suds in the bucket
[02:59.36] And the clothes hanging out on the line
[03:03.78] She left the suds in the bucket
[03:05.14] And the clothes hanging out on the line
[03:10.18] She was in the backyard
[03:11.82] Say it was a little past nine
[03:15.15] When her prince pulled up
[03:17.76] A white pickup truck
[03:21.01] Plenty old enough
[03:23.85] And you can't stop love
[03:26.65] And no, you can't fence time
[03:29.63] And you can't stop love
[03:40.58]
