Prove Them Wrong

Remember back when we met one another

We both got stuck in school for the summer

They were holding our diplomas hostage until we passed, remedial math

Yep, i was a skinny little kid with a buck thirty-five

But i was tall in the hall, with you by my side

If there was trouble ahead now, we never saw it coming

We fell in love and hit the ground running



Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn't last

Oh yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast

Oh yeah life goes on

And didn't we prove them wrong



I drove an old plymouth duster, paid $500 cash

Had a slant 6 under the hood, 3 on the dash

But it got me back home from the army, doing a 4-year tour

So i could stay yours

When i asked for your hand i was scared half to death

Was stumbling for words, when you smiled and said, "yes"

Trouble ahead now, we never saw it coming

We tied the knot, girl, and hit the ground running



Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn't last

Oh yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast

Oh yeah life goes on

And didn't we prove them wrong



Hey, hey, hey won't you look at us now... (now)

Just a couple of fools still in love somehow... (still in love somehow)

Somehow



Oh yeah, yeah... they said a love like ours wouldn't last

Yeah, yeah... we were too young and moving too fast

Oh yeah life goes on and on

And didn't we prove them wrong



Yeah, we proved them wrong

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah
