The night before life goes on
Right when it hits his arm he says
They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long
At daddy's shop, it ain't much but it's a job
But here it is they don't have long
They take one last drive around town
"Come on baby, lets get outta here"
There's nothin' you can say
At daddy's shop, it ain't much but it's a job
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
He takes off his flannel shirt
And just like those kids
The night before life goes on
And she says, "I don't want this night to end
Tomorrow shell be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
The night before life goes on
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
LSU 18 years in her rear view
Yeah, that's what my momma told me
They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long
I just don't wanna let you go"
"Life ain't fair and this growin' up stuff man I don't know
Ooh, a tear falls off her cheek and
Checkin' out the moon and the city lights
And he drapes it around her shoulders
They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long
And I know how it feels when love goes away
I didn't wanna listen to no one
At daddy's shop, it ain't much but it's a job
LSU 18 years in her rear view
And man it already looks different
LSU 18 years and hurry ya do
Why does it have to end?"
Tomorrow she'll be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge
He bangs the wheel and says
Slides up behind her and holds on tight
Tomorrow she'll be rollin' down I-10 Baton Rouge
Yeah, there's nothin' you can do
