Intro: Verse I've got a friend who wears go-go boots to Sunday School We used to sit and drink pink champagne on a tin roof Ridin' it out in a Thunderbird Singin' out loud every single word of Jack & Diane Tryin' to pretend there was no rules Kissin' on boys and sneakin' in bars Tryin' to get a glimpse of who we are We weren't wild, but we weren't far She said Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line Thanks to Elvis and Kurt Cobain, the world will never be the same You gotta make history one day at a time Verse She graduated in 1987 We were gonna make a break for it together Headed out to Hollywood Where the stars are bright and the weather's good But she changed her mind and went back to the 7-11 She went and married the football star Had few kids and works real hard It ain't wild but it ain't far way too much to feel the danger way too much to shield his heart too far gone to ever wanna change her cause he loves her way too much way too much Instrumental Verse Hey, Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line Thanks to Jesus and John Wayne the world will never be the same You've gotta make history one day at a time Outro Like John Lennon and Kennedy I'm with them, yeah, 'cause I believe You gotta make history one day at a time
