Sittin' on the front step Little white suit case Hearing that diesel 'Fore it hit the front gate His headlights burnin' down a Friday night Southern Belle statue Standing in the screen door Watching her whole world Head for an old four With a man who can't look her in the eye So I run to him Big hug, jump in And I cry for her Out the window Some mama's and daddies Are lovin' in a straight line Take forever to heart and take a long sweet ride But some mama's and daddies Let their heartstrings tear and tangle And some of us get stuck in love triangles Bowling alley burger Fries and milkshake Headin' to the same old Two-dollar matinee Baby, how's your school been? And how's your mom? Patsy Cline echos back off the dashboard Starin' at my boots and the dusty old floorboards Baby, two weeks ain't really all that long So I run to her Wrap my arms around her skirt And I cry for him Out the window Some mama's and daddies Are lovin' in a straight line Take forever to heart and take a long sweet ride But some mama's and daddies Let their heartstrings tear and tangle And some of us get stuck in love triangles Ooooh, ooh, In a love triangle, yeah Ooooh, ooh Some mama's and daddies Are lovin' in a straight line Take forever to heart and take a long sweet ride But some mama's and daddies Let their heartstrings tear and tangle, oh But some mama's and daddies Ran outta love in '94 But some mama's and daddies Don't even talk no more But some mama's and daddies Let their heartstrings tear and tangle And some of us get stuck, And some of us grow up in love triangles Ooooh
