Billy’s Dream

[Verse 1]
Billy's dream was his own garage
He had his eye on a new '69 Dodge
And he'd tell Jenny he couldn't lose
If she was with him, there was nothin' he couldn't do

[Verse 2]
But Jenny's daddy made it clear
Billy wasn't welcome 'round there
But Jenny's been readin' bride magazines
While Billy's been workin' nights to buy her a ring

[Chorus]
To prove him wrong and prove love right
They couldn't stay apart even if they tried
Their love was strong, the lasting kind
They proved him wrong by provin' their love was right

[Verse 3]
Jenny's daddy had heard how much
Billy wanted that shiny new Dodge
He said, "The car keys can be yours today
If you pack your things and drive it away"

[Verse 4]
That night, Billy packed to go
Jenny slipped out her back window
They found a preacher in Tennessee
Jenny's daddy was left holdin' the keys

[Chorus]
To prove him wrong and prove love right
They couldn't stay apart even if they tried
Their love was strong, the lasting kind
They proved him wrong by provin' their love was right

[Verse 5]
Some years later, it was overheard
Billy bought his own shop in Gatlinburg
Jenny's daddy stayed in touch
He drove six grandkids in that old '69 Dodge

[Chorus]
To prove him wrong and prove love right
They couldn't stay apart even if they tried
Their love was strong, the lasting kind
They proved him wrong by provin' their love was right

[Outro]
And they proved him wrong by provin' their love was right
