Second Thoughts Lyrics - The Statler Brothers

It was in the high school yearbook dated may of '55 

We were voted the couple most likely to survive 

Even teachers never doubted we were more than just friends 

But your mama had some second thoughts back then 

When you went off to nursing school I kept my job in town 

To show your folks that I was old enough to settle down 

When you came home for holidays we were happy without sin 

But your mama had some second thoughts again 

Does your mama know I'm rich and happy well almost that is 

Has she ever said that maybe she was wrong 

All she ever really wanted was to have the best in you 

And that's all I ever really wanted too. 

Thanks to her she made me want to prove I could succeed 

But thanks to her I'll never have the one thing that I need 

And If she reads the papers and remembers who I am 

She's probably having second thoughts again
