Suds in the Bucket — текст песни (Sara Evans)

She was in the backyard they say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck
Her folks should of seen it comin` it was only just a matter of time
Plenty old enough, and you can`t stop love
She stuck a note on the screen door "sorry but I got to go"
That was all she wrote, her mamma`s heart was broke
That was all she wrote, so the story goes

(Chorus) Now her daddy`s in the kitchen starin` out the window, scratchin` and a rackin` his brains
How could 18 years just up and walk away?
Our little pony tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now shes gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin` out on the line

Now don`t you wonder what the preacher`s gonna preach about sunday morn Nothing quite like this has happened here before
Well he must have been a looker, smooth talkin` son of gun
For such a grounded girl to just up and run
Course you can`t fence time, and you can`t stop love

(2nd Chorus) Now all the biddy`s in the beauty shop gossip goin` non stop Sippin on pink lemonade
How could 18 years just up and walk away?
Our little pony-tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now shes gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin` out on the line

(3rd chorus) She`s got her pretty little bare feet hangin` out the window And they`re headin` up to Vegas tonight
How could 18 years just up and walk away
Our little pony tailed girl growed up to be a woman
Now she`s gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin` out on the line
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin` out on the line

She was in the backyard they say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up, a white pick up truck
Plenty old enough, and you can`t stop love
No you can`t fence time, and you can`t stop love
