Tommy still drives that ol' pickup truck He had back in high school He says he won't trade it in 'Cause they don't make 'em like they used to His wife Donna's got a picture of Elvis By the clock in the kitchen Her hair and clothes come back in style Every now and then They made a promise on their wedding day Nothin's gonna take this feeling away Chorus: Let the world turn Let the years drift by The fire will burn In their hearts just as bright Time may take its toll But their love won't grow old And if they live to be a hundred and one They're still gonna die young Tommy spent years fixin' wheels and brakes At the Texaco on the highway Donna kept the kids and did permanent waves At the beauty shop on Fridays It's been forty years but who'd ever know By the way they carry on Just the same two kids as much in love As the day they married on They made a promise on their wedding day Nothin's gonna take this feeling away (REPEAT CHORUS) Gonna die young (Repeat three times) They're still gonna die young...
