Goin' Through The Big D

(album: What A Way To Live - 1994)

Six short months we went together
Decided it should be forever
Two paychecks are better than one
A diamond ring and it was done
Bought her a house like I said I would
In sub-divided neighborhood
The fuse got short and the nights got long
It was over long gone
Before I knew
Where I was headed to

I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the Jeep she got the palace
I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas

Things like this are never final
I'm still paying on the vinyl
Flooring in the laundry room
It's multi-colored and waterproof
It's a little bit tough to face my friends

The ones that said I jumped in
The river of love a little too soon
That was August
This is June and it's a different tune

I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the Jeep she got the palace
I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas

I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the Jeep she got the two bedroom
Mortgage is due
Siding light blue palace
I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas
I'm going through the big D
And don't mean Dallas
