Lyrics
ALL OF MY LIFE
We'd been dating for about a year
When she cuddled up to me and whispered Dear
Let's tie the knot 'cause this is true love far as I can see
I said I've been thinking the same way too
But I got one thing to ask of you
How many years do you think you could love a cowboy like me
She said 5 10 15 20 25 or 30 if you treat me nice
Love boy we've got plenty it's up to us to make it work out right
And the way folks are living longer these days I might love you for 75
So to answer your question all of my life
We put it off for a little while
'Til I ask her Dad to walk her down the aisle
I said sir this is true love far as I can see
He said son you and her are still so young
A good relationship can be a tricky one
How strong and long do you think you can love her can you answer me
I said 5 10 15 20 25 or 30 and I'll treat her nice
Love Sir we've got plenty it's up to us to make it work out right
And the way folks are living longer these days I might love her for 75
So to answer your question Sir all of my life
And the feelings we had we're still feeling today
Two kids later a grandson on the way
Last night when I held her I said girl do you know
It's been 25 years or so
Since you said 5 10 15 20 25 or 30 if you treat me nice
5 10 15 20 25 or 30 if you treat me nice
Love Boy we've got plenty it's up to us to make it work out right
And the way folks are living longer these days I might love you for 75
So to answer your question all of my life
All of my life
All of my life
All of my life
