She was just sixteen a real young mans dream
she had the future in the palm of her hands
but she gave it away in exhange for a kiss and a wave

from some sweet talking man
now a year gone by she wipes the tears from her eyes
as she cradles her baby in her arms

as she looks back to the day when fate walked her way
in the form of her charms


CHORUS
well dont you cry now pretty baby
have you heard the news

that everybody has to sometimes face the blue
it doesn't matter what you say
or what you try to do

its just everyone has to sometimes face the blue

Well Kate had a date a meeting with fate

to try and discuss a deal
about the way she felt the cards she'd been dealt
from fates fortune wheel

well she looked up to the sky with tears in her eyes
and asked what the future read
well with a wink of his eye and a flash of his smile

this is what he said

He said well don't you cry now little lady

have you heard the news
that everybody has to sometimes face the blue
it doesn't matter what you say

or what you try and do
its just everyone has to sometimes face the blue



No don't you cry now pretty baby
have you heard the news

that everybody has to sometimes face the blue
it doesn't matter what you say
or what you try to do

its just everyone has to sometimes face the blue
