The Forty-Ninth Parallel - Kacy & Clayton

Should have married for money

Like any woman in her right mind would do

Instead I settled for love

And don’t you know that that’s the worst thing you can do

We fell short on rent

We fell short on good time

Now I got nothing to my name

His name that I took for mine

See I come from the country

From a family of status and pride

To counting tips in the city

As a low-class, working man’s bride

We fell short on rent

We fell short on good time

Now I got nothing to my name

His name that I took for mine

Now I’m back in the country

With what little is left of my prime

I got the ranch now I just need a cowboy

On that forty-ninth parallel line

Should have married for money

Like any woman in her right mind would do

Instead I settled for love

And don’t you know that that’s the worst thing you can do
