We Called It Everything But Quits

(album: Next To You - 1989)

We called it trouble when the bills were overdue
Worried, sick didn't think that we'd pull through
When that old car was too run down to be fixed
We called it everything but quits

We called it hard times when the crops just wouldn't grow
Prayed for rain looked like the answer was no
Up came a storm that blew the barn to bits
We called it everything but quits

We called it God's Will when daddy passed away
We cried together kneeling at his grave
It sure looked hopeless when the barn could not be saved
We called it everything but quits

They called us crazy when we married in our teens
Looking back love was strong years were lean
At times we felt like giving up thank God we never did
We called it everything but quits

We called it God's Will when daddy passed away
We cried together kneeling at his grave
It sure looked hopeless when the barn could not be saved
We called it everything but quits

La da da da da...
We called it everything but quits
La da da
