Red Rag lyrics

Artist  : Tim Mcgraw 
Song : Red Rag
 


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 and
hiding from the cops on a summer
night.
Running all the red lights.
An' we
parked way out in a clearing in a grove,
And
the night was as hot as a coal-burning stove: we
were cooking with gas.
Ooh, it had to
last

In the back of that red rag
top,
She said: "Please don't stop."
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.
And 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 all the way home that
night:

On the back of that red
ragtop,
She said: "Please don't stop loving
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 out of 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 ragtop,
On
the day she stopped loving me.
I was back in
that red ragtop,
On the day she stopped loving
me.
