[Verse 1]
I was only nineteen
The morning you were born
With your hair fine and red
Your eyes like my own
Barely a woman
With only a song
I sang to keep you smiling
Held you all night long
[Verse 2]
Home through the streets
With you in my arms
Cold winter mornings
In a Colorado town
I've seen you stumble
You've watched me fall
You know we've got nothing
You know we've got it all
[Chorus]
Rain comes down and the trucks rolling by
Does that old parka keep you dry?
Sixteen years old, out on the road
Trying to get to the sky
I was only nineteen
The morning you were born
With your hair fine and red
Your eyes like my own
Barely a woman
With only a song
I sang to keep you smiling
Held you all night long
[Verse 2]
Home through the streets
With you in my arms
Cold winter mornings
In a Colorado town
I've seen you stumble
You've watched me fall
You know we've got nothing
You know we've got it all
[Chorus]
Rain comes down and the trucks rolling by
Does that old parka keep you dry?
Sixteen years old, out on the road
Trying to get to the sky
