[Bb]
She was in [Eb] the backyard say it was [Bb] a little past nine
When [Eb] a prince pulled up, a wife [Bb] picked up truck
Her folks should have seen [Eb] it coming it was only just [Bb] a matter of time
Plenty [Eb] old enough, and [Bb] you can't stop love
She stuck a note on the screen door, [Eb] sorry but [Bb] I got to go
And that [Eb] was all she wrote, her [Bb] mama's heart was broke
And that [Eb] was all she wrote, and so [Bb] the story goes
[Gm] Now her daddy's in [F] the kitchen staring at [Eb] the window
Grunting [Bb] and a racket in his brain
[Gm] How could eighteen [F] years just up [Eb] and walk away
[Gm] Our little ponytail [F] girl grew up to be [Eb] a woman
Now she's gone in [Bb] a blink of an eye
She left the sludge in [F] the bucket and the clothes [Bb] hanging out on the line
Now [F] [Bb]
don't you wonder what [Eb] the preacher's gonna preach about [Bb] Sunday morning
Nothing [Eb] quite like this has happened [Bb] here before
Well he must have been [Eb] a looker, smooth talking [Bb] son of a gun
Such [Eb] a grounded girl, just [Bb] up and run
Well she [Eb] can't stand the time, and [Bb] you can't stop love
[Gm] Now all the babies in [F] the beauty shop got the four [Eb] long stops
Sipping [Bb] on pink lemonade
[Gm] How could eighteen [F] years just up [Eb] and walk away
[Gm] Our little ponytail [F] girl grew up to be [Eb] a woman
Now she's gone in [Bb] a blink of an eye
She left the sludge in [F] the bucket and the clothes [Bb] hanging out on the line
Yee-hoo!
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Gm] She's got her pretty [F] little feet hanging out [Eb] the way
Heading up [Bb] to Vegas tonight
[Gm] How could eighteen [F] years just up and [Eb]
[Gm] walk away
Our little ponytail [F] girl grew up to be [Eb] a woman
Now she's gone in [Bb] a blink of an eye
She left the sludge in [F] the bucket and the clothes hanging [Bb] out on the line
She left the sludge in [F] the bucket and the clothes hanging [Bb] out on the line
She was in [Eb] the backyard saying it was [Bb] a little past nine
When [Eb] her prince pulled up
[Bbm] Oh [Bb] I pick up drugs
I'm [Eb] plenty old enough
And [Bb] you can't stop love
No [Eb] you can't this time
And [Bb] you can't stop love
