Thomas Amo – Licorice Straws and Soda Pop Lyrics

Driving down those back roads, just avoiding the end of the line
Never takin' short cuts, and always takin' our time

I'd always catch you smiling, every time I'd look at you
I'd see your eyes sparklin', so kind and oh so blue
Id ask you whatcha thinkin', you'd say, "can't wait to say I do"
Oh honey, don't be crazy, we only got a buck or two 

You said we'll live on 

Licorice straws and soda pop
Candy kisses always so hot, hugs so tight I cannot stop, as long as I'm with you 
Hold me close and never let go, take my hand and touch my soul
Our life together will never get old, as long as I have you 

The day before I met you
I was feeling all alone
No one to share my life with, no one to share my home

I'd watch the rain with tears of pain and pray it to go away
The good Lord must've heard me, and sent you along my way 

I like to thank him daily, for the wife who's oh so true, you truly are my soul-mate
I love you through and through

So, let's go, live on 

Licorice straws and soda pop, candy kisses oh so hot, hugs so tight I cannot stop, just to be with you 
I'll hold you so close and never let go, take your hand and touch your soul
Our life together we'll both grow old, as long as I'm with you 

With you
