Intro

 Today is my Birthday

 And all that I want

 Is to dig through this big box of pictures in my kitchen

Till the daylight's gone

 This one here's my mama

With the long, brown hair

 I'm forty years older today than she was in that picture there

 But if life stayed they 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 the last was unplanned

What a big surprise

 That's him with his daddy's eyes

I love 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
