Class Rings
[Verse 1]
Even my momma believed him, my little sister was attached
And dad always said that he was the son he never had
We said forever for four years, I swore he was the one
But the one don't drive away for good in a beat-up Chevy truck
No, that ain't love
[Chorus]
That's why class rings aren't made of diamonds
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
You shouldn't have nice things
And that's why class rings
Arеn't made of diamonds
[Verse 2]
Now when I go home for Christmas and takе exit 108
Drive around that bend where way back when I felt my first heartbreak
Been so many years now since I've stopped at these red lights
It took moving on for me to come back and finally realize
[Chorus]
That's why class rings aren't made of diamonds
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
You shouldn't have nice things
And that's why class rings
Aren't made of diamonds
(Mm, mm-mm-mm)
[Bridge]
Now I met a new guy and yeah, he might
Not have been my prom king
But he treats me like a queen
And soon as he got on one knee
[Chorus]
I see why class rings aren't made of diamonds
And being sixteen don't mean you should be driving
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
You shouldn't have nice things
And that's why class rings
Aren't made of diamonds
(Mm, mm-mm-mm)
[Outro]

[Chorus]
That's why class rings aren't made of diamonds
And being sixteen don't mean you should have your license
You're gonna crash a car, break a heart, it's never perfect timing
