| Same old scenario
|
| One guy’s young and one guy’s old
|
| One’s in love and sittin' on Go
|
| And one’s already walked that road
|
| One’s on year number 33
|
| And one just bought that diamond ring
|
| One says «Dad, so how’d you do it?»
|
| The other just laughs and says «There ain’t nothin' to it»
|
| Just try to quit smokin' and reel back the drinkin'
|
| Don’t always tell her everything you’re thinkin'
|
| And dance her when she needs dancin'
|
| You get up and go to work, get up and go to church
|
| Crawl up in that bed right next to her and listen
|
| Instead of having all the answers
|
| Then he slapped him on the back and said
|
| «Son, you can do it, there ain’t nothin' to it»
|
| There’ll be trouble along the way
|
| Words will fly and dishes break
|
| The baby comes in and money goes out
|
| You will learn to ride the ups and downs
|
| You’ll wanna quit a million times
|
| But if you hang on, the years unwind
|
| And when you get to see your blushing bride
|
| Turn beautiful at 35, or 45, or 55
|
| You’ll be glad you quit smokin' and reeled back the drinkin'
|
| Didn’t always tell her everything you were thinkin'
|
| And danced her when she needed dancin'
|
| You got up and went to work, got up and went to church
|
| Crawled up in that bed right next to her and listened
|
| Instead of having all the answers
|
| It’s only love and all of us go through it
|
| And if I had to do it again you know I’d do it
|
| There ain’t nothin' to it
|
| No, there ain’t nothin' to it |
