Jan Howard - We Lyrics

We walked the warm streets of Florida with sand in our pockets lots of times

Walked the cold streets of New York with two guitars and a tin cup just for dimes

We spent one winter in Winnipeg a summer in the Mississippi sun

Had some trouble once in Fargo some bad times in Enceno but we had fun

We made the papers once in Phoenix when we stopped and tried to break up a fight

We hit keno in Reno and lost it all in Vegas the very next night

We hopped a train in Chicago and skinny dipped in San Francisco bay

We checked it all in the big hotels then used the fire escape to get away

And we wouldn't trade it all for the world and all of its gold

It's the past that makes the future worth livin'

Mother Luck's been good to us and we will praise her in our songs

For the good times and the good love she has given

[ ac.guitar ]

We flew into Kansas City early April 24th without a plane

We got stranded in a snow storm with some folks from Salt Lake City on a train

We spent a week one night in LA looking for a doctor's daughter on the strip

Then we wound up in Nashville pitchin' songs and waitin' tables for a tip

And we wouldn't trade it all...

And we wouldn't trade it all...
