Lyrics
She pushed her wedding ring across the counter And said, "Tell me that it's worth more than I think There's a bus to Baton Rouge, leaves in an hour And ninety dollars cash buys me a seat That quarter-carat picture-perfect dream Wasn't all it was cracked up to be But it ain't stolen, it ain't hot Someone told me it cost a lot Man, ain't that the truth I thought I'd wear it my whole life It never even crossed my mind Back when it was new It' end up in a pawn shop on Charlotte Avenue" He walked in with it slung over his shoulder He said, "Man, you'll never give me a fair price But this young man's town's just watching me get older And the song's I sing don't feed my kids and wife There's a few belt buckle scratches on the back And the B-string tends to fall a little flat But it ain't stolen, it ain't hot Someone told me it cost a lot Man, ain't that the truth I thought I'd play it my whole life It never even crossed my mind Back when it was new It end up in a pawn shop on Charlotte Avenue" Dreams don't die, even when they're broken Tomorrow, when that sign says open That guitar, oh, that wedding band Will start a new dream, second-hand It ain't stolen, it ain't hot Someone told me it cost a lot Man, ain't that the truth I thought I'd own it my whole life It never even crossed my mind Back when it was new It end up in a pawn shop on Charlotte Avenue
