Sittin up on the roof Sneakin a smoke by the chimney Checkin out the moon And the city lights He takes off his flannel shirt And drapes it around her shoulders Slides up behind her and holds on tight And she says I dont want this night to end Why does it have to end
[Chorus:] Tomorrow she'll be rollin down I-10 Baton Rouge, LSU 18 years in her rearview He's got a friday paycheck lined up down the block At daddy's shop It aint much but its a job Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long The night before Life goes on
Oooh A tear falls off her cheek and Right when it hits his arm he says Come on baby Lets get outta here They take one last drive around town And man it Already looks different He bangs the wheel and says Life aint fair And this growin up stuff man I dont know I just dont wanna let you go
[Chorus:] Tomorrow shell be rollin down I 10 Baton Rouge LSU 18 years in her rearview Hes got a friday paycheck lined up down the block At daddy's shop It aint much but its a job Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long The night before Life goes on
Yeah thats what my momma told me And just like those kids I didnt wanna listen to no one Yea theres nothin you can do Theres nothin you can say And I know how it feels when love goes away
[Chorus:] Tomorrow shell be rollin down I 10 Baton Rouge LSU 18 years and her rearview Hes got a friday paycheck lined up down the block At daddy's shop It aint much but its a job Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long But here it is They dont have long The night before
