Song lyrics
Sitting up on the roof sneaking a smoke by the chimney
Checking out the moon and the city lights
Takes off his flannel shirt (and he) drapes it around her shoulders
Slides up behind her and holds on tight (and she says)
I don’t want this night to end… why does it have to end

Chorus:
Tomorrow she’ll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge LSU eighteen years in her rearview
He’s got a Friday paycheck lined up
Down the block Daddy’s shop it ain’t much but it’s a job
They’ve been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before life goes on

A tear falls off her cheek right when it hits his arm (he says)
C ’mon baby let’s get out of here
They take one last drive round town man it already looks different
He bangs the wheel says “Life Ain’t Fair”
This growing up stuff man I don’t know…just don’t wanna let you go

Chorus:
Tomorrow she’ll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge LSU eighteen years in her rearview
He’s got a Friday paycheck lined up
Down the block Daddy’s shop it ain’t much but it’s a job
They’ve been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before life goes on

Bridge:
That’s what my mama told me and just like those kids
I didn’t wanna listen to no one
There’s nothing you can do there's nothing you can say
And I know how it feels
When love goes away 

Chorus:
Tomorrow she’ll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge LSU eighteen years in her rearview
He’s got a Friday paycheck lined up
Down the block Daddy’s shop it ain’t much but it’s a job

They’ve been dreading this moment all summer long
But here it is they don’t have long…the night before life goes on

i really love this song, it tells a really good story of teenagers and how bad it hurts to let someone that you love more than anything go.
