Celtis Carr - Dylan Lyrics
Well I drove into town last Sunday With one thing on my mind Get my kid and get on the road Leave the past behind We were married five long years Sometimes it don’t work out But try explaining that to a child When he asks you what it’s all about He’ll say, why can’t mommy and daddy live together Why can’t mommy and daddy get along Why can’t friends and family stick together If everybody’s right, then who’s wrong We named our boy Dylan Just like Zimmerman And tried to raise him as best we could Our folks would understand But Mary ran off late in May With some guy from a band And for eighteen months I raised my son With my own two hands Then she turned up with some lawyer He had a paper from the court Dylan had to go and live with her I paid child support Now we’re driving down the highway Just me and my boy at my side And as he’s staring out the window He hangs his head and sighs He says, why can’t mommy and daddy live together Why can’t mommy and daddy get along Why can’t friends and family stick together If everybody’s right, then who’s wrong
