Keni Thomas Prove Them Wrong
Remember back when we met one another
We both got stuck in school for the summer
They were holding our diplomas hostage until we passed,
remedial math
Yep, I was a skinny little kid with a buck thirty-five
But I was tall in the hall, with you by my side
If there was trouble ahead now, we never saw it coming
We fell in love and hit the ground running
Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn’t
last
Oh yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast
Oh yeah life goes on
And didn’t we prove them wrong
I drove an old Plymouth Duster, paid $500 cash
Had a slant 6 under the hood, 3 on the dash
But it got me back home from the Army, doing a 4-year
tour
So I could stay yours
When I asked for your hand I was scared half to death
Was stumbling for words, when you smiled and said, “yes”
Trouble ahead now, we never saw it coming
We tied the knot, girl, and hit the ground running
Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn’t
last
Oh yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast
Oh yeah life goes on
And didn’t we prove them wrong
Hey, hey, hey won’t you look at us now... (now)
Just a couple of fools still in love somehow... (still
in love somehow)
Somehow
Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn’t
last
Yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast
Oh yeah life goes on and on
And didn’t we prove them wrong
Yeah, we proved them wrong
Oh, Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, Oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
