The Night Before (Life Goes On)

Sittin' up on the roof Sneakin' a smoke by the chimney Checkin' out the moon And the city lights He takes off his flannel shirt and he Drapes it around her shoulders He slides up behind her and holds on tight And she says "I don't want this night to end Why does it have to end?" Tomorrow she'll be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge, LSU Eighteen years in her rear-view He's got a Friday paycheck lined up, down the block At daddy's shop It ain't much, but it's a job They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long The night before Life goes on Ooo, a tear falls off her cheek and Right when it hits his arm he says "Come on, baby, let's get out of here." They take one last drive around town And, man, it already looks different He bangs the wheel and says "Life ain't fair And this growin' up stuff man I don't know I just don't wanna let you go." Tomorrow she'll be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge, LSU Eighteen years in her rear-view He's got a Friday paycheck lined up, down the block At daddy's shop It ain't much, but it's a job They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long The night before Life goes on Yeah, that's what my mama told me And just like those kids I didn't wanna listen to no one Yeah, there's nothin' you can do There's nothin' you can say And I know how it feels when love goes away Tomorrow she'll be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge, LSU Eighteen years in her rear-view He's got a Friday paycheck lined up, down the block At daddy's shop It ain't much, but it's a job They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long But here it is They don't have long The night before Life goes on, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah --- The Night Before (Life Goes On) - Carrie Underwood
