Answer
Hello Ashley,

This song is called "Goin' Through The Big D"......


"Goin' Through The Big D"
Written by Mark Wright, Ronnie Rogers & Jon Wright
Recorded by Mark Chesnutt

Six short months we went together
Decided it should be forever
Two paychecks are better than one
A diamond ring and it was done
Bought her a house like I said I would
In a sub-divided neighborhood
The fuse got short and the nights got long
It was over long gone
Before I knew where I was headed to

Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the jeep, she got the palace
Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas

Things like this are never final
I'm still payin' on the vinyl
Flooring in the laundry room
It's multi-colored and waterproof
It's a little bit tough to face my friends
The ones that said I jumped in
The river of love a little too soon
That was August
This is June and its a different tune

Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the jeep, she got the palace
Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas

Im goin' through the big d
And don't mean Dallas
I can't believe what the judge had to tell us
I got the jeep, she got the two bedroom
Mortgage is due
Siding light blue palace
Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas
Im goin' through the 'Big D'
And don't mean Dallas


Glad to be of help. Cheers.........Mel.
