jesse's name

in a tattoo shop at the end of main, two lovers set out with no restraint, he swore she was the one from day one, she swore he made her complete, in a tattoo shop at the end of main, above his heart they carved jesse's name, the years flew by so fast underneath their feet, bills to pay just tryin' to make ends meet, a buddy asked him why he chose the road that he was on, asked him how he kept form goin' insane, and in a little bar at the end of main, he pulled off his shirt and he showed 'em jesse's name, 'til late one night came a phone call, that said, "you gotta come home from work, 'cause the baby says it's time for me to go, and i know it's a little early and i thought i could wait, but baby i can't stand the pain", and in a hospital room at the corner of 5th and main, they gave their little miracle jesse's name, seventy years, gray haired and still in love, holding' hands like they were still 18, they both knew jesse's time was growin' short, somehow they both chose not to believe, and in a hospital room at the corner of 5th and main, oh he cried the last time jesse said his name, and in a field lined with daisies, they laid her in the ground, as their daughter held the man that they both loved, and as the preacher said his words, and the choir began to sing, oh he felt the pain, underneath jesse's name, underneath jesse's name, in a tattoo shop at the end of main, he remembers the day they carved jesse's name
