Kenny, Come On

[Verse 1]
Kenny had a letter in his front blue jeans
Folded like a secret from a magazine
Read it on the corner by the five-and-dime
She said “me and Butch
We’re doing fine”
[Chorus]
Kenny
Come on
She’s already gone
She made her choice
You gotta move on
There’s a whole big world and it’s waiting for you
Kenny
Come on
She’s already gone
Dry those eyes
Put your brave face on
Somewhere a girl’s gonna love you true
More than Sandy
Ever learned to do
[Verse 2]
Sandy liked the trophies and the shiny car
Butch just liked to show ‘em who the big shots are
You were holding doors and saving every cent
She was counting bracelets
Not the time you spent
[Chorus]
Kenny
Come on
She’s already gone
She made her choice
You gotta move on
There’s a whole big world and it’s waiting for you
Kenny
Come on
Shake off that song
You two danced to all summer long
Somewhere a girl’s gonna love you true
More than Sandy
Ever learned to do
[Bridge]
You’re more than her name in your history book (yeah yeah)
More than the way that she used to look (oh oh)
One day you’ll laugh at the way this feels
Riding in the front of a better deal
[Chorus]
Kenny
Come on
She’s already gone
She made her choice
You gotta move on
There’s a whole big world and it’s waiting for you
Kenny
Come on
Sing something new
Hear your friends all singing with you (hey!)
Somewhere a girl’s gonna love you true
More than Sandy
Ever learned to do
(come on Kenny)
Ever learned to do
