"Old Enough Memory" lyrics
I lost my spare key for the third time this year
I keep it under the porch mat, but it just ain't here
I forgot mamas birthday I missed it by a week
She laughed and said I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached to me
Things slip my mind when they ought not to
But girl when it comes down to you
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
That first dashboard kiss
Piled on Ol' Mill road
That sundress on an oak limb
Laying by the clear water hole
I remember those nights down to a T
And even if I try not to
Maybe I still see
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
I could put a 100 miles
A 100 years between
Back then and right now
But your leavin' just won't leave me
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
Memory to forget
Memory to forget
I keep it under the porch mat, but it just ain't here
I forgot mamas birthday I missed it by a week
She laughed and said I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached to me
Things slip my mind when they ought not to
But girl when it comes down to you
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
That first dashboard kiss
Piled on Ol' Mill road
That sundress on an oak limb
Laying by the clear water hole
I remember those nights down to a T
And even if I try not to
Maybe I still see
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
I could put a 100 miles
A 100 years between
Back then and right now
But your leavin' just won't leave me
That left turn out the driveway
Might as well been yesterday
It hurts like hell just the same
As the day you got gone
The dust never settled down
When you pulled out of this town
And I've just been hanging round
Livin' out an old Jones song
I thought drinking would kill it
But the thinking just don't quit
You just ain't old enough memory to forget
Memory to forget
Memory to forget
