The Choices She Made lyrics - The Choices She Made

She didn't have to marry down so far

[?] with raising babies or driving older car

She didn't have to give so much and be so underpaid

Lord, I don't know how she's living with the choices she made

She didn't have to wear those bargain threads

[?] those dandy hands, moping floors and changing beds

She had a sweet on easy street, with her hand she could have played

But she threw out all her aces for the choices she made

She'll stand there in defiance of a logic she ignored

The springs lay peaceful smile upon her face

Using up her youth on some old cowboy

Would finally pay the bills on hope and faith

Time goes by, it doesn't change a thing

But she still thinks it's worth it all to wear that little ring

And I still lay beside her wishing I was worth the price she paid

All teary eyed and thankful for the choices she made
