Don't Take The Girl Lyrics - Not A Moment Too Soon - Tim Mcgraw

Johnny's daddy, was takin' him fishing 

when he was eight years old 

A little girl came through the front gate 

holdin' a fishin' pole 

His dad looked down and smiled 

said we can't leave her behind 

Son I know you don't want her to go 

but someday you'll change your mind 

And Johnny said 

Take Jimmy Johnson, take Timmy Thompson 

take my best friend Bo 

Take anybody that you want as, long as she don't go 

Take any boy in the world 

Daddy please, don't 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 

won't be any harm 

And Johnny said 

Take my money, take my wallet 

take my credit cards 

Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me 

here's the key to my car 

Mister give it a whirl 

But please, don't take the girl 

Same old boy, same sweet girl 

five years down the road 

There's gonna be a little one and she 

says it's time to go 

Doctor says the baby's fine 

but you'll have to leave 

'Cause his momma's fading fast and, Johnny hit his knees 

And there he prayed 

Take the very, breath you gave me 

take the heart from my chest 

I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me 

make this my last request 

Take me out of this world 

God please, don't take the girl 

Johnny's daddy was taking him fishing 

When he was eight years old
