Johnny's daddy was takin him fishin When he was eight years old
A little girl came through
the front gate Holdin a fishin pole
Johnny's 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 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 as I tell you to there Won't be any harm"
And
Johnny said "Take my money Take my wallet
Take my credit cards Take the watch that my
Grandpa gave me
Here's the keys 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 mama's fadin 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 takin him fishin When he was eight years old
Inspiration takes many different forms. I love this song and find it an inspiration to keep my own
marriage strong and to love my husband more than myself. I do have a wav. File of this song if
you will contact me, I will be glad to send it to you.
Share the Love
