Sara Evans - Suds In The Bucket lyrics

She was in the backyard, say it was a little past nine

When her prince pulled up, a white pick-up truck

Her folks should of seen it coming it was only just a matter of time

Plenty old enough and you can't stop love.

She stuck a note on the screen door "Sorry but I got to go"

That was all she wrote, her mama's heart was broke

That was all she wrote, so the story goes

Now her daddy's in the kitchen staring out the window scratching and a racking his brains

How could 18 years just up and walk away?

Our little pony-tail girl growed up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line

Now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna preach about sunday morn'

Nothing quite like this has happened here before

Well, he must have been a looker, a smooth talking son of a gun

For such a grounded girl to just up and run

'Cos you can't fence time and you can't stop love

Now all the biddies in the beauty shop gossip going on stop sipping on pink lemonade

How could 18 years just up'n and walk away?

Our little pony-tail girl growed up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line

YEEEHOO!

She's got her pretty little bare feet hanging out the window and they're heading up to Vegas tonight

How could 18 years just up and walk away?

Our little pony-tail girl grown up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line

She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line

She was in the backyard, say it was a little past nine

When her prince pulled up, a white pick-up truck

Plenty old enough and you can't stop love

No, you can't fence time and you can't stop love
