Dont Take The Girl — текст песни (Tim McGraw)

(craig martin/larry w. johnson)

(track 8 - time 4:09)



Johnnys daddy was taking him fishin

When he was eight years old

A little girl came through the front gate holdin a fishing pole

His dad looked down and smiled, said we cant leave her behind

Son I know you dont want her to go but someday youll change your mind

And johnny said "take jimmy johnson, take tommy thompson, take my best friend bo

Take anybody that you want as long as she dont go

Take any boy in the world

Daddy please dont take the girl



Same old boy

Same sweet girl

Ten years down the road

He held her tight and kissed her lips

In front of the picture show

Stranger came and pulled a gun

Grabbed her by the arm said "if you do what I tell you to, there wont be any harm"

And johnny said "take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards

Heres the watch that my grandpa gave me

Heres the key to my car

Mister give it a whirl

But please dont take the girl



Same old boy

Same sweet girl

Five years down the road

Theres going to be a little one and she says its time to go

Doctor says the babys fine but youll have to leave

cause his mommas fading fast and johnny hit his knees and there he prayed

Take the very breath you gave me

Take the heart from my chest

Ill gladly take her place if youll let me

Make this my last request

Take me out of this world

God, please dont take the girl



Johnnys daddy

Was taking him fishin

When he was eight years old
