-- OR -- 
When I was a boy
Four houses down from me was a family with an only child
She was the only girl in this whole world that could make me smile
Down the road ... I made up reasons to go
Down the road
Somewhere inside of me there was something she took a liking to
And I asked her to marry me she said she really wanted to
Down the road ... to see what life's gonna hold
Down the road
Her momma wants to know if I'm washed in the blood or just in the water
Her daddy wants to know if I make enough ... to take his daughter
Down the road ... before he can let her go
Down the road
BREAK
Now down the street from here there's an engineer with an only son
And our baby girl says she believes that he is the only one
Down the road
Her momma wants to know is he washed in the blood or just in the water
And I wanna know that he makes enough to take my daughter
Down the road ... when it comes time to go
Down the road
Down the road ... you know I wanna help her go
Down the road
Down, down, down that road
Down, down, down that road
