It's Not Supposed To Go Like That
Tommy found his daddy's gun, and Joey, he'd never seen one
Real cowboy all dressed up, as he held it in his hand
Said, "You be good, and I'll be bad," then he pulled the trigger back
Stopped little Tommy in his tracks, and said, "Get up, man"
People came from miles to say goodbye
To the Wilson's youngest son
His innocent life had just begun
It's not supposed to go like that
It's not intended to end that way
Life is a journey constantly turning
Down an unknown path
But it's not supposed to go like that
Jimmy had his daddy's car
And the keys to Jenny's heart
Fifth of whiskey on the floorboard, almost gone
Havin' the time of their life, had only one thing on their mind
Never saw the flashin' lights or the train comin' on
Now there's a wreath and two small crosses
On the right side of the road
Reminders of a love that won't grow
It's not supposed to go like that
It's not intended to end that way
Oh, life is a journey constantly turning
Down an unknown path
But it's not supposed to go like that
I wonder if guardian angels cry
When they see it all played out
And as they stand with their hands tied
Oh, do they cry out loud?
It's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that (not supposed to go)
No, it's not supposed, it's not supposed to go like that
No, no, no, it's not supposed to go like that
Real cowboy all dressed up, as he held it in his hand
Said, "You be good, and I'll be bad," then he pulled the trigger back
Stopped little Tommy in his tracks, and said, "Get up, man"
People came from miles to say goodbye
To the Wilson's youngest son
His innocent life had just begun
It's not supposed to go like that
It's not intended to end that way
Life is a journey constantly turning
Down an unknown path
But it's not supposed to go like that
Jimmy had his daddy's car
And the keys to Jenny's heart
Fifth of whiskey on the floorboard, almost gone
Havin' the time of their life, had only one thing on their mind
Never saw the flashin' lights or the train comin' on
Now there's a wreath and two small crosses
On the right side of the road
Reminders of a love that won't grow
It's not supposed to go like that
It's not intended to end that way
Oh, life is a journey constantly turning
Down an unknown path
But it's not supposed to go like that
I wonder if guardian angels cry
When they see it all played out
And as they stand with their hands tied
Oh, do they cry out loud?
It's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that
No, it's not supposed to go like that (not supposed to go)
No, it's not supposed, it's not supposed to go like that
No, no, no, it's not supposed to go like that
