We were half a mile high on the ferris wheel at our old county fair

I didn't even know we had trouble until she told me way up there

That's when my life started spinning round

My world came crashing to the ground

the day that she left Tulsa

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

With the caution lights flashin', in the passin', lane

From a bridge I watched our dreams goin', down the drain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

No she wasn't showin' yet but she'd be by Christmas time

Up there like a fool I took for granted it was mine

She never came out and told me that I was wrong

But all of a sudden the light came on

the day that she left Tulsa

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

With the caution lights flashin', in the passin', lane

From a bridge I watched our dreams goin', down the drain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

I guess she thought the truth would end up drivin' me away

But she was wrong but I never had the chance to say

The day that she left Tulsa

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down.. rain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

With the caution lights flashin', in the passin', lane

From a bridge I watched our dreams goin', down the drain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' down rain

In a chevy, in a hurry, in the pourin' downnnn raaain
