It's Not Supposed To Go Like That Lyrics

Tommy found his daddy's gun And Joey had never seen one Real cowboy all dressed up As he held it in his hand
Said, "You be good and I'll be bad" Then he pulled the trigger back Stopped little Tommy in his tracks and said "Get up, man"
People came from miles to say goodbye To the Wilsons' youngest son His innocent life had just begun
It's not supposed to go like that It's not intended to end that way Life is a journey Constantly turnin' down an unknown path But it's not supposed to go like that
Jimmy had his daddy's car And the keys to Jenny's heart Fifth of whiskey on the floorboard Almost gone
Havin' the time of their life Had only one thing on their mind Never saw the flashin' lights Of the train comin' on
Now there's a wreath and two small crosses On the right side of the road Reminders of a love that won't grow
It's not supposed to go like that It's not intended to end that way Oh, life is a journey Constantly turnin' down an unknown path But it's not supposed to go like that
I wonder if guardian angels cry When they see it all play out And as they stand with their hands tied Oh, do they cry out loud?
It's not supposed to go like that No, it's not supposed to go like that No, it's not supposed to go like that No, it's not supposed to go like that Not supposed to go
Well, no, it's not supposed It's not supposed to go like that No, no, no, it's not supposed to go like that
