Kenny Chesney
There Goes My Life
Written by - Wendell Mosley & Neil Thrasher
All he could think about was
I'm too young for this
I've got my whole life ahead
Hell, I'm just a kid myself
How am I gonna raise one
 
All he could see were his dreams 
Going up in smoke
So much for ditching this town
And hangin' out on the coast, oh, well
Those plans are long gone
He said...
 
There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
Might as well kiss it all goodbye
There goes my life

A couple years of up all night
And a few thousand diapers later
That mistake he thought he'd made
Covers up the refrigerator, oh, yeah
He loves that little girl
Momma's waitin' to tuck her in
As she stumbles up those stairs
And she smiles back at him
Draggin' that teddy bear
Sleep tight, blue eyes and bouncin' curls
And he smiles...
 
There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you, daddy, good night
There goes my life
 
She had that Honda loaded down with Abercrombie clothes
And fifteen pairs of shoes and his American Express
He checked the oil, slammed the hood
Said you're good to go, she hugged them both
And headed off to the west...coast

And he cried...

There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you, baby, goodbye

There goes my life...
There goes my life...
Baby, goodbye
