May Your Hearts Stay Strong Lyrics

He met the proud beauty's at a night club
She couldn't keep the beat
She wore the proud beauty's grandma's prom dress
Raccoon slippers on the proud beauty's feet

He took a shot o' somethin' strong
To make him feel less weak
And so the story goes

There's somethin' t' be said about
Tradin' stories o' when ye were 8 years old
He had his first stitches
When he bit an ice cream bowl

She had the proud beauty's first kiss
In a swimmin' hole
So the story goes

And the days grew long
And the grog was overflowing
And the lass knew the lass was 'n love
'Cause nobody ever hugged the proud beauty's like that
Hugged the proud beauty's like that
Hugged the proud beauty's like that
Hugged the proud beauty's like that

They moved into a school bus
Just 'cause it seemed like fun
She said, "I like the way yer touch me
It makes me feel like I have no skeleton"

And so the story goes

And I've seen photographs
And video tapes
Of that diesel home
That lovin' place

And 'tis 'bout time
Two mind combined
In such a fine fine way

And may yer lives be long
And may yer wishes all be simple
And may yer hearts stay strong

Tucked 'n the bed
You see the ghost o' yer teddy bear
Check under the covers
Just t' make sure he's still sleepin' there

Turn weddin' gowns into angel clothes
For the baby t' wear
Turn weddin' gowns into angel clothes
For the baby t' wear

She rides him like the state fair
They make love like two solar flares
Carin' like they really care
That they're gonna make it

He wants t' die 'n the place where
She first said, "I love you"
Spread his ashes with the breath
From the last kiss that the lass blew

They decorate when father lives
They celebrate through hungriness
And 'tis 'bout time two minds combines
In such a fine fine way

And may yer lives be long
And may yer wishes all be simple
And may yer hearts stay strong

And may yer lives be long
And may yer wishes all be simple
And may yer hearts stay strong
