Red Skateboard

by Aaron Gibson

/

lyrics

He rode a red skateboard to school
She had a buzzed, skater punk hairdo
She kissed him one day, they were out at the pool
He liked her and thought she was cool
Then she moved away
Kids, just kids

He worked at a pizza joint in high school
She moved back from Virginia in June
His jaw hit the floor when she walked in the room
The angel he'd have to have soon
Kids, just kids
Out in the world on their own
They went out in the world on their own

He played in a band, he was hell bent on radio
He married his girl in their backyard
They said their "I do's" then got caught in life's undertow
Out in the world on their own
Kids, just kids

He worked construction for thirty five years
She earned a career teaching school
Each one of their kids caught a wave to their destiny
Out in the world on their own
They went out in the world on their own… kids

She'd had eyes that shone
bright as the sun, go out in the world on their own

He braided her long grey hair
He went out in the world
He went out in the world
He went out in the world on his own

Kids, just kids
He rode a red skateboard to school
She had a buzzed, skater punk hairdo
