Our First Year Lyrics & Tabs by Chris LeDoux
Our First Year
guitar chords lyrics
Winter winds were blowing
When we loaded that old truck
With a few things we had and all our dreams
With my new bride there beside me
We headed down the road
I would show her places and things she'd never seen
First we went to Denver
Fort Worth and San Antone
She cheered me on at every rodeo
Then Houston finally ended then right after San Angelo
I didn't have to tell her, cause she knew that we were broke
She never complained when the wins didnt come
She just took it all in stride
And if I worked good to get the dust, she was just as proud
She was happy being by my side
She just took it all in stride
And if I worked good to get the dust, she was just as proud
She was happy being by my side
Then in California, the baby started showing
And all her clothes were getting way to small
We couldnt spare the money to buy her any new ones
She just wore my shirt and jeans and didn't mind at all
Early in the mornings, we'd wake up by the road side
I'd build a fire and she's get out the eggs
She'd cook us up some breakfast and we'd just down there on grass
Lord those were some of the best meals, well I guess I ever ate
She never complained when the wins didnt come
She just took it all in stride
And if I worked good and bit the dust, she was just as proud
She was happy being by my side
Well now those days are over somehow we got ahead
That little gal I married, well she's still here with me
We finally got the house we planned
Down a long stream
And all those old hard times are just cherished memories
She never complained when the wins didnt come
She just took it all in stride
And if I worked good to get the dust, she was just as proud
She was happy being by my side
Yeah she was happy being by my side
