Dad walks in says Cheri, my girl we need to talk,

remember that night with John Boy, you know I saw it all
          Em    G                   D
And I was scared, for the first time
   Em G D
Woah

D
Well then one thing led to another, left my mom down on the floor

My dad said once you had everything, you chose to be whore,
         Em  G                      D
So where gone, gone to the next town
                      Em  G                D
Oh my friends we were gone, just like that
