Sweetheart's young, knows where she's going
So she thought until she started showing
Sinking fast and desperately rowing
Her old man just sits and sighs
He can't stand to look her in the eyes
It happened to him and his second wife
Some guys play with made up guns
My best friend's still on the run
'Cause she said babe you're not the one
Broken hearts most always heal
They make you think they're such a deal
But goddamn it's a nasty deal
And you bow out to time and chance
You bow out to time and chance
And what do you do when you wake up?
What do you say when you wake up?
I just wanted a General Lee
And a dad, but I got three
Found out college wasn't for me
It's not that we all don't give it a shot
Just never take the time to ask why not
Everybody thinks they know the dance
And they bow to time and chance
We bow out to time and chance
