Awesome country song lyrics...

No, they have nothing to do with a dog dying, a truck breaking down, or a break up.  Quite the contrary, actually...

Love Like Crazy
Written by Doug Johnson and Tim James
Performed by Lee Brice

They called them crazy when they started out.
Said, “Seventeen's too young to know what loves about.”
They've been together fifty-eight years now,
That’s crazy!

He brought home sixty-seven bucks a week.
He bought a little 2 bedroom house on Maple Street,
Where she blessed him with six more mouths to feed;
Yeah, that’s crazy!

Just ask him how he did it; he'll say pull up a seat.
“It'll only take a minute, to tell you everything.
Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse ‘I Love You;’
Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense,
Never let your prayin' knees get lazy,
And love like crazy.”

They called him crazy when he quit his job.
Said, “Them home computers, boy, they'll never take off.”
He sold his one man shop to Microsoft.
They paid like crazy!

Just ask him how he made it;
He'll tell you, “Faith and sweat,”
And the heart of a faithful woman,
Who never let him forget

Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse ‘I Love You;’
Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense,
Never let your prayin' knees get lazy,
And love like crazy,

Always treat your woman like a lady,
Never get to old to call her baby,
Never let your prayin’ knees get lazy,
And love like crazy!

They called him crazy when they started out;
They've been together fifty-eight years now.

Ain’t that crazy?
