lyrics

She came out in September
Drove a Rent-A-Truck this far
Going to move out to the suburbs
when she gets that good, good job

This may not be her future but this was her ideal
You get called just once for those ideas...
Precious they are
Her mother told her not to
Her father said, "Go dear."
She could have been married
like her sister had been last year
In the middle of decision
the time it takes to put a sweater on
She packed up and said goodbye
I guess it says something
When you leave those things behind

When your Making Your Fortunes
Just try not to cry

I don't want to know
And I don't want to say anymore
When you deal in life
You just have to endure

I don't want to know
And I don't want to say anymore
It takes a lot of devotion
to finally open up the door

She met him in the city
He reminded her of home
They tried to get together
From opposite ends of a cell phone
In the corporate setting
things were looking pretty slim
When two things happened
She quit that's when her life began

When your Making Your Fortunes
Just try not to cry

Things turn out ok
When you think in a positive way

There's a turn to the story
and it isn't that bad
She got it all
When she gave it all she had
Now she sees him on a regular basis
Ring's in the works
Yeah, you know she might be married

When your Making Your Fortunes
Just try not to cry
