Tightrope

Jenny had a baby in the back of her car
While her boyfriend was out drinking
with the boys at the bar
They got married
just as soon as they could
but Jenny always knew
that boy would do her no good

Down the road
Walking on a tightrope
with all that you can't leave behind
Don't you know
There's nothin' but a heartache
when you get to the other side

Billy got a job on the assembly line
Barely making ends meet
couldn't pay the bills on time
Stayed out all night
and started fooling around
with the mayor's only daughter
It was the talk of the town

Down the road
Walking on a tightrope
with all that you can't leave behind
Don't you know
there's nothing but a heartache
when you get to the other side
Down the road to the other side
Down the road to the other side

Jenny took a walk along the railroad tracks
with her baby and her pride
you know they never looked back
