Ronna Reeves - A Hundred and One lyrics

Bobby still drives that old pickup truck He had back in high school Says he won't trade it in 'Cause they don't make 'em like they used to His wife Donna got a picture of Elvis By the clock in the kitchen Her hair and clothes come back in style Every now and then They made a promise on their wedding day Nothing's gonna take this feeling away Let the world turn Years drift by The fire will burn in their hearts just as bright Time may take it's toll But their love won't grow old And if they live to be a hundred and one They're still gonna die young Bobby spent years fixin' wheels and brakes At the Texaco on the highway Donna kept the kids And did permanent waves At the beauty shop on Fridays It's been forty years But who'd ever know It's just the way they carried on The same two kids as much in love As the day they married on They made a promise on their wedding day Nothing's gonna take this feeling away Let the world turn Years drift by The fire will burn And their hearts just as bright Time may take it's toll But their love won't grow old And if they live to be a hundred and one They're still gonna die young They're gonna die young
