Love starts with a toothbrush, A big razor and a Dixie cup A little splash of aftershave, Before you leave for that first date I see stars in both your eyes After that long kiss goodnight
Forever starts with a suitcase, Sneaking out the window to get away To the car parked by the curb, Gassed up for a gallon burn A little chapel and a couple of rings Will get you two toothbrushes by the bathroom sink
And everything that's anything Starts out as a little thing Just needs a little time and room to grow Step by step, day by day It all adds up along the way And the next thing that you know
Life starts with a little house, A corner lot on the edge of town A weed eater and a picket fence You think it's good as the getting gets Then she wakes up feeling bad You both wonder what's up with that
Everything that's anything Starts out as a little thing Just needs a little time and room to grow Step by step, day by day It all adds up along the way And the next thing that you know
One night around eight o'clock You scrub him down then you dry him off You pick him up and put his little feet On the stool by the bathroom sink You grab the crest and the Dixie cup It all hits you as he opens up... Love starts with a toothbrush
