Sixteen Years

In a pickup truck, we bought in 1962
 And paid each month, till, it belonged to me and you
 The cardboard boxes in the back, hold everything we own
 Things we've saved for sixteen years, to start a brand new home
 We're holding sixteen years of love, in cardboard boxes
 Sixteen years of laughter, sweat and tears
 We've stacked the back with happiness, sadness, love, and cheer
 Things we've saved together, sixteen years
 We sold our little dreamhouse, on a small, six-acre farm
 And said, "Goodbye", to friends we'll miss, and fields of golden corn
 In our search for city life, where pay is big, and jobs are fine
 Sixteen years of love and tears, following behind
 We're holding sixteen years of love, in cardboard boxes
 Sixteen years of laughter, sweat and tears
 We've stacked the back with happiness, sadness, love, and cheer
 Things we've saved together, sixteen years
 Oh, the things we've saved together, sixteen years
