Lyrics There's A Lot Riding On That - Josh Turner

There's A Lot Riding On That

She’s Only 17
Known him since last week
Now they’re stealin' down an old dirt road
Kissin' on the grass
He’s movin' way too fast
Will she yes
Will she say no
There’s a lot ridin' on that like her whole life
Like her happiness
Just one wrong turn and it’s a lesson you can’t unlearn
The angels look on holdin' their breathe time stands still
Lord she’s scared to death
Will she find the light or take temptations path
There’s a lot of ridin' on that
It’s been one whole month he hasn’t touched that stuff
Now he’s stopped at a red light outside Billys' Bar
One more binge and she’s gone
That green light comes on
Will he pull in or will he just drive off
There’s a lot ridin' on that like his whole life
Like his happiness
Just one wrong turn and it’s a lesson you can’t unlearn
The angels look on holdin' their breathe time stands still
Lord he’s scared to death
Will he find the light or take temptations path
There’s a lot of ridin' on that
You got choices little voices talking in your head
Sometimes there are no second chances
Your whole world can change in one easy weigh out second
Any girl any town
Tiny baby cryin' loud
She wore baggy shirts to hide it, but the truth is on her now
There’s a mission down on fifth or there’s a garbage bin
Such a little girl for such a big decision
There’s a lot ridin' on that like her whole life
Like her happiness
Just one wrong turn and it’s a lesson you can’t unlearn
The angels look on holdin' their breathe time stands still
Lord she’s scared to death
Will she find the light or take temptations path
There’s a lot of ridin' on that
Oh yeah
