Mac Mcanally Down The Road Lyrics

When I was a boy
Four houses down from me
Was a family with an only child
And she was the only girl
In this whole world that could make me smile
Down the road
And somewhere inside of me
There was something she took a liking to
And I asked her to marry me and
She said she really wanted to
Down the road
See what life's gonna hold
Down the road

Chorus:
Her mama wants to know am I washing in the blood or
just in the water
Her daddy wants to know that I make enough to take his
daughter Down the Road
Before he can let her go
Down the road

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

Chorus:
Her mama wants to know is he washed in the blood or
just in the water
And I want to 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 want to help her go
Down the road
Down the road
