There's a fast-food bag wadded up in the backseat
Row of fence post starin' right back at me
Gatorade fill at the 7-11 still hotter than Hell in the shade at 7

Cash my check, fill up the tank
Buy you a flower and buy some drink
To sip on
To live on
Watchin' that Summer Sun drip on
Fields of green
And, baby, I wouldn't change a thing

It ain't always pretty, but you are
It ain't easy, girl, but it ain't too hard
Meet you at the corner pub save me a seat
Won't be anybody there lucky as me
A blue-collared blue-eyed worth it
Yeah, whatever we're doin' it's workin'
Like Jack and Diane just singin' our ditty
Life goes on, it ain't always pretty, but you are

There's a Mickey Mouse magnet on the 'frigerator
Holdin' me and you laughin' at the county fair
Marry-go-round and round it goes
Just like these dusty nowhere roads
It's either too dry, or rainin'
It's either hurry up, or waitin'
I love it that you like the way I sing
Sunday mornin', cigarette, Amazing Grace

It ain't always pretty, but you are
It ain't easy, girl, but it ain't too hard
Meet me in the back pew save me a seat
Won't be anybody there lucky as me
A blue-collared blue-eyed worth it
Yeah, whatever we're doin' it's workin'
Like Jack and Diane just singin' our ditty
Life goes on, it ain't always pretty, but you are
Whoa, you are

We'll get it wrong or get it right
Funny thing about this beautiful life

It ain't always pretty, but you are
It ain't easy, girl, but it ain't too hard
Meet you on the front porch, save me a seat
Won't be anybody there lucky as me
A blue-collared blue-eyed worth it
Yeah, whatever we're doin' it's workin'
Like Jack and Diane just singin' our ditty
Life goes on, it ain't always pretty, but you are

They're playing our song, baby
Sing it with me
Life goes on, it ain't always pretty, but you are
