Suds in the Bucket (Sped Up)

She was in the back yard

Say it was a little past nine

When her prince pulled up

A white pick-up truck

Her folks should a seen it comin'

It was only just a matter of time

Plenty old enough

And you can't stop love

She stuck a note on the screen door

Sorry but I got to go

And that was all she wrote

Her Mama's heart was broke

And that was all she wrote

And so the story goes

Now her Daddy's in the kitchen

Starin' out the window

Scratchin' and a rackin' his brains

How can 18 years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed girl

Growed up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket

And the clothes hangin' out on the line

Now don't you wonder what the preacher's

Gonna preach about Sunday morn

Nothing quite like this

Has happened here before

Well he must of been looker

A smooth talkin' son of a gun

For such a grounded girl

To just up and run

Of course you can't fence time

And you can't stop love

Now all the biddies in the beauty shop

Gossip goin' non-stop

Sippin' on pink lemonade

How could 18 years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed girl

Growed up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket

And the clothes hangin' out on the line

Yee Hooo

She's got her pretty little bare feet

Hangin' out the window

And they're headed up to Vegas tonight

How could 18 years just up and walk away

Our little pony tailed girl

Growed up to be a woman

Now she's gone in the blink of an eye

She left the suds in the bucket

And the clothes hangin' out on the line

She left the suds in the bucket
