ain't always pretty

there's a fast-food bag wadded up in the backseat

row of fence post starin' right back at me

gatorade fill at the 7-11 still hotter than hell in the shade at 7

cash my check

fill up the tank

buy you a flower and buy some drink

to sip on

to live on

watchin' that summer sun drip on

fields of green

and

baby

i wouldn't change a thing

it ain't always pretty

but you are

it ain't easy

girl

but it ain't too hard

meet you at the corner pub save me a seat

won't be anybody there lucky as me

a blue-collared blue-eyed worth it

yeah

whatever we're doin' it's workin'

like jack and diane just singin' our ditty

life goes on

it ain't always pretty

but you are

there's a mickey mouse magnet on the 'frigerator

holdin' me and you laughin' at the county fair

marry-go-round and round it goes

just like these dusty nowhere roads

it's either too dry

or rainin'

it's either hurry up

or waitin'

i love it that you like the way i sing

sunday mornin'

cigarette

amazing grace

it ain't always pretty

but you are

it ain't easy

girl

but it ain't too hard

meet me in the back pew save me a seat

won't be anybody there lucky as me

a blue-collared blue-eyed worth it

yeah

whatever we're doin' it's workin'

like jack and diane just singin' our ditty

life goes on

it ain't always pretty

but you are

whoa

you are

we'll get it wrong or get it right

funny thing about this beautiful life

it ain't always pretty

but you are

it ain't easy

girl

but it ain't too hard

meet you on the front porch

save me a seat

won't be anybody there lucky as me

a blue-collared blue-eyed worth it

yeah

whatever we're doin' it's workin'

like jack and diane just singin' our ditty

life goes on

it ain't always pretty

but you are

they're playing our song

baby

sing it with me

life goes on

it ain't always pretty

but you are
