Johnny's Daddy was taking him fishing
He was eight years old
Little girl came through the front gate
Holding a fishing 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 Tommy 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 ol' 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
"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 ol' 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 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.
