Karaoké Suds in the Bucket Sara Evans

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

When her prince pulled up a white pickup truck

Her folks should of seen it comin'

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

And that was all she wrote so the story goes

Now her daddy's in the kitchen starin' out

The window scratchin' and a rackin' his brains

How could eighteen years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed 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 hangin' 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 smooth talkin' son of a gun

For such a grounded girl to just up and run

Of course you can't fence time and you can't stop love

Now all the biddy's in the beauty shop

Gossip goin' non stop sippin' on pink lemonade

How could eighteen years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed 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 hangin' on the line

Yeeh ooh

She's got her pretty little bare feet hangin' out the window

And they're headin' up to Vegas tonight

How could eighteen years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed 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 hangin' on the line

She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin' on the line

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

When her prince pulled up a white pickup truck

Plenty old enough and you can't stop love

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