lyrics

You and me babe gonna make it till it's over
gonna count our blessing, and pick it from the clover
And we'll make pretty babies, and send them off to school
Make em eat their veggies, cause that's what good kids do
We'll make the rent and buy a little car
Take family vacations to the national park
I'll take up a hobby, get ourselves a dog
Save a little money for a cabin by the lake
And i'll love you forever, share breakfast every morn
That's the picture that i depend on

I got hurt on the weekend and i can't go into work
Tried to swing it by the union but our local's such a jerk
You say " don't worry about it darling, we got money tucked away
our country's in the toilet but our bills can get paid."
I'm sorry my sweet heart, there's something i've go to tell you
when i was away on business i was actually in Reno
and i got into some cocaine, gambles some away
then we got a stripper and the rest i just can't say
except the alcohol was everywhere and i couldn't keep track
that's when i fell off the fountain and hurt my back

Well, Everybody's got to lean on me
Everybody's got to lean on me
Everybody's got to lean on me

We're yelling and we're crying, we're not speaking to each other
I'm sleeping on the couch, you're calling your mother
We'll get ourselves through this mess, hard times we can weather
Ill work under the table babe, as long as we're together
I'm sorry my sweet heart, i got swept up with the fellas
before we went to Reno we flew into vegas
And i bet the house on horses, crashed a rental car
Took some pretty women, to the nicest bars
And when everything was spinning, when i came too
the only thing that i could see was you
