[00:16.11] In a tattoo shop at the end of Main
[00:23.78] Two lovers set out with no restraint
[00:30.29] He swore she was the one from day one
[00:37.60] She swore he made her complete
[00:44.01] In a tattoo shop at the end of Main
[00:51.23] Above his heart they carved Jesse's name
[01:02.03] The years flew by so fast underneath their feet
[01:09.14] Bills to pay just tryin' to make ends meet
[01:16.00] A buddy asked him why he chose the road that he was on
[01:23.37] Asked him how he kept form goin' insane
[01:29.07] And in a little bar at the end of Main
[01:36.73] He pulled off his shirt and he showed 'em Jesse's name
[01:43.44] 'Til late one night came a phone call
[01:46.57] That said, "You gotta come home from work
[01:50.34] 'Cause the baby says it's time for me to go
[01:57.00] And I know it's a little early and I thought I could wait
[02:04.12] But baby I can't stand the pain"
[02:10.86] And in a hospital room at the corner of 5th and Main
[02:17.78] They gave their little miracle Jesse's name
[02:49.11] Seventy years, gray haired and still in love
[02:56.07] Holding' hands like they were still 18
[03:02.98] They both knew Jesse's time was growin' short
[03:10.18] Somehow they both chose not to believe
[03:16.29] And in a hospital room at the corner of 5th and Main
[03:22.39] Oh he cried the last time Jesse said his name
[03:29.41] And in a field lined with daisies
[03:32.99] They laid her in the ground
[03:36.37] As their daughter held the man that they both loved
[03:43.28] And as the preacher said his words
[03:46.51] And the choir began to sing
[03:50.08] Oh he felt the pain
[03:52.05] Underneath Jesse's name
[03:58.99] Underneath Jesse's name
[04:07.78] In a tattoo shop at the end of Main
[04:14.84] He remembers the day they carved Jesse's name
