Song For Carter

I met your mother when I was 16
 With a pocketful of nothing and a car that wasn't clean
 She showed me things that I had never seen
 She was always looking at the good looking boys
 She stand in a corner and use them as toys
 Never did I watch and nor did I avoid
 She's always looking for friends in high times
 And every time I think of her you still cross my mind
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 I moved on out at the age of 18
 With a pocketful of nothing
 And nothing but a dream
 I would wash for a buck and I would fill in all the seams
 She was always working at that store on the hill
 Worried about nothing but a thing called a bill
 Never did she lie and nor did she steal
 She's always looking for friends in high times
 And every time I think of her you still cross my mind
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 But loving was nothing that I could enjoy
 We were all scared we didn't know where to start
 We had you when we both were apart
 With 2 broken families but plenty open hearts
 Son I tell you now that this life is real hard
 And do what you do but don't ever fall apart
 Live how you live but don't ever stray too far
