Where I Grew Up

歌曲歌詞

There's still marks on the pantry door of that little house

Where Mama used to measure us

I'm proud to say that's my home where I was raised

But that ain't where I grew up

See I gained a little on Father Time

The summer my Granddaddy died

The first time I saw Mama cry

Man that sure was tough

Felt like I put on a few years

Watching Daddy wipe her tears

In my little coat and tie standing in that cemetery mud

That's where I grew up

My senior year a case of beer out on the river bank

Getting a head start on twenty one

That's the place that made me feel just like a man

But that ain't where I grew up

See I gained a little on Father Time

That night I crossed that center line

I bet I rolled a dozen times

Next thing I knew I was waking up upside down

Praying God just get me out

Then I hit my knees beside what was left of my truck

Hey that's where I grew up

You learn as you go that's how you grow

See I gained a little on Father Time

When me and her had our first big fight

I said some things I made her cry

She packed all her stuff
