Dolly Parton Sixteen Years Lyrics

Home > P > Dolly Parton > Sixteen Years Lyrics

In a pickup truck we bought in 1962

And paid each month till it belonged to me and you

The cardboard boxes in the back hold everything we own

Things we've saved for sixteen years to start a brand new home



We're holding sixteen years of love in cardboard boxes

Sixteen years of laughter sweat and tears

We've stacked the back with happiness sadness love and cheer

Things we've saved together sixteen years



We sold our little dreamhouse on a small six acre farm

And said goodbye to friends we'll miss and fields of golden corn

In our search for city life where pay is big and jobs are fine

Sixteen years of love and tears following behind



We're holding sixteen years of love...
