NorthStar' Country

LIFE HAPPENED
From the time she was thirteen
Julie Thompson had a dream

That someday she would

See her name in lights
Julie Thompson had a dream

That someday she would

See her name in lights
And after every high school play

The grown ups all would say

That Julie's future

Sure is lookin' bright
Well I saw her sellin' videos
At a store in Eastland mall

I said why aren't you in

Hollywood takin' casting calls
She handed me my change
And started laughing
And said

Life happened
Me and Bobby Chapman fell in love
Daddy passed away

And the babies came

And drama school's is just too much
Now there's little league
And mouths to feed
And I direct the kindergarten

Christmas pageant life happened
Curtis had an old Chevelle

The cops new that car well

He never lost a race
On Windy Hollow Road
By the time he turned eighteen
He was the Georgia

Dilt Track King proudly

Sponsored by the local Texaco
I bumped into him at Murphst bar
And he ordered us a round

I said why aren't you in

Rockingham chasin' Gordon down
He killed his drink and tore
The corners off his napkin
And said

Life happened
I was drivin' home from Athens

Late one night a trucker

Fell asleep and

Swapped paint with me
Said I rolled that van

At least five times

Now I thank my stars

And I sell used cars
And I teach Drivefs Education
At St. Catherines

Yeah life happens
I saw the rest of my old friends
At our reunion at the Holiday Inn

It seemed like

It was only yesterday
Standin' in the gym

In your cap and gown
Full of wanderlust

And glory bound
We set out to chase our dreams

On wings of passion

But some where along the way

We got distracted life happened
Our clothes went out

Of fashion with our songs

We started families
And bought SUV's
Became step dads and soccer
Moms I finally realized

We turned out all right

And we spent the night
Just catchin' up and dancin'

And life happened

And we spent the night
NorthStar' Country
