Mark chesnutt she was lyrics

She started her new life ten dollars in debt

That's all it took to get started back then

A trip to the courthouse across that state line

No-one could stop her

She's made up her mind

He was eighteen,an she wasn't



But she said she was

And never thought twice

And came back home as my daddy's wife

She just shook her head when her mama said:

"Are you sure he's the one?"

An she was



He took a job and farmed on the side

He made the ends meet,but she kept'em tied

Changes were comin' to their little world

She said "What would you like?

"A boy or a girl?

And he said,"Are you?"



An she said she was

And never thoguht twice

'Bout takin' the next step in building their lives

Soon there were three and she tried to

Everything to us

An she was



Those preious moments turned into years

In what seemed like a blink of an eye

I held he rhand as I leaned down to ask her

"Momma,are you ready to say goodbye?"



An she said she was

But she thought twice

Holdin' my hand as she let go of life

Daddy always said a woman like her

Would be hard to give up

An she was (She was)



If there ever was a picture of love

She was
