Ronna Reeves - A Hundred and One lyrics

rate me

(Mary Ann Kennedy/Kye Fleming/Rich Wayland)

Bobby still drives that old pickup truck

He had back in high school

Says he won't trade it in

'Cause they don't make 'em like they used to

His wife Donna got a picture of Elvis

By the clock in the kitchen

Her hair and clothes come back in style

Every now and then

They made a promise on their wedding day

Nothing's gonna take this feeling away

Let the world turn

Years drift by

The fire will burn in their hearts just as bright

Time may take it's toll

But their love won't grow old

And if they live to be a hundred and one

They're still gonna die young

Bobby spent years fixin' wheels and brakes

At the Texaco on the highway

Donna kept the kids

And did permanent waves

At the beauty shop on Fridays

It's been forty years

But who'd ever know

It's just the way they carried on

The same two kids as much in love

As the day they married on

They made a promise on their wedding day

Nothing's gonna take this feeling away

Let the world turn

Years drift by

The fire will burn

And their hearts just as bright

Time may take it's toll

But their love won't grow old

And if they live to be a hundred and one

They're still gonna die young

They're gonna die young
