We both know how it goes, or so the story's told I run away with you We both find out it's hard, move to the trailer park Try to make a new start Married at nineteen, divorce at twenty-four Three jobs and still poor Have to trade a life of dreams for the simple little things Give me the right to sing 'Bout the countless loves Endless hearts gone wrong My life is a country song Who is he? Somebody with nobody's name Who am I? Nobody playing somebody's game I'm nobody, just Countless love with a heart gone wrong My life is a country song Country music, it don't need to be saved Just to remember all those who gave Countless lives in a lonesome grave My life is a country song We both know how it goes, or so the story's told I run away with you
