All The Wrong Reasons lyrics

Trouble blew in on a cold dark wind,

It came without no warning,

And that big ol' house went up for sale,

They were on the road by morning.

Oh, oh, the days went slow into the changing season.

Oh, oh, out in the cold for all the wrong reasons.

Well, she grew up hard and she grew up fast

In the age of television,

And she made a vow to have it all,

It became her new religion.

Oh, oh, down in her soul, it was an act of treason.

Oh, oh, down they go, for all the wrong reasons.

Where the sky begins the horizon ends

Despite the best intentions,

And a big old man goes up for sale,

He becomes his own invention.

Oh, oh, the days go slow, into the changing season.

Oh, oh, bought and sold for all the wrong reasons.

Oh, oh, down they go for all the wrong reasons.
