Red Ragtop

Intro: I was twenty and she was eighteen We were just about as wild as we were green In the ways of the world She picked me up in that red ragtop We were free of the folks, hiding from the cops On a summer night, runnin' all the red lights And we parked way out at a clearing in a grove And the night was as hot as a coal burning stove We were cookin' with gas, ooh it had to last In the back of that red ra---gtop She said please don't stop Lovin' me Well the very first time her mother met me Her green eyed girl had been a mother to be For two weeks I was out of a job and she was in school But life was fast and the world was cruel We were young and wild, we decided not to have a child So we did what we did and we tried to forget And we swore up and down there would be no regrets In the morning light, but on the way home that night On the back of that red ra---gtop She said please don't stop Lovin' me We took one more trip around the sun But it was all make believe in the end No I can't say where she is today I can't remember who I was back then Well you do what you do and you pay for your sins And there's no such thing as what might have been That's a waste of time, drive you outta your mind I was stopped at a red light just yesterday Beside a young girl in a Cabriolet and her eyes were green And I was in an old scene I was back in that red ra---gtop On the day she stopped Lovin' me I was back in that red ra---gtop On the day she stopped Lovin' me Outro:
