Aquamarine

Wichita Kansas a little further down the line
A piece of that highway on the back of my mind

You can see it there from the shoulder a perfect little scene
A two bedroom starter home painted aquamarine

She’s out there in her front yard in her favorite pink tube top
She’s been accused of causing accidents but she’s never been caught

Folks say they even seen her barefoot in the winter time
Out there in the back yard pulling her lacys down from the line

It don’t matter what the neighbors say they can all go straight to hell
She doesn’t have a TV so it easier to see life’s to short to put her's up for sale

He knows he isn’t starting any trends his favorite jeans are always black
His t-shirts all have holes in them and his hair is too long in the back

He spends his day time smoking cigarettes and rebuilding foreign cars
At night he takes his woman out for strong drinks in shit hole bar

It don’t matter what the neighbors say they can all go straight to hell
He don’t have a TV so it’s easier to see life’s to short to put his up for sale

She’s there to the drive him home when he’s had too much to drink
She’s lays in bed next to him and wonders what it he thinks

Because they’ve got something that few have ever seen
Living a life of happiness under a house of aquamarine

It don’t matter what the neighbors say they can all go straight to hell
When you don’t have TV its easier to see life’s to short to put yours up for sale.
