| She was staring out that window, of that SUV
|
| Complaining, saying I can’t wait to turn 18
|
| She said I’ll make my own money, and I’ll make my own rules
|
| Mamma put the car in park out there in front of the school
|
| Then she kissed her head and said I was just like you
|
| -Chorus-
|
| You’re gonna miss this
|
| You’re gonna want this back
|
| You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast
|
| These Are Some Good Times
|
| So take a good look around
|
| You may not know it now
|
| But you’re gonna miss this
|
| Before she knows it she’s a brand new bride
|
| In a one-bedroom apartment, and her daddy stops by He tells her It’s a nice place
|
| She says It’ll do for now
|
| Starts talking about babies and buying a house
|
| Daddy shakes his head and says Baby, just slow down
|
| -Chorus-
|
| You’re gonna miss this
|
| You’re gonna want this back
|
| You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast
|
| These Are Some Good Times
|
| So take a good look around
|
| You may not know it now
|
| But you’re gonna miss this
|
| Five years later there’s a plumber workin' on the water heater
|
| Dog’s barkin', phone’s ringin'
|
| One kid’s cryin', one kid’s screamin'
|
| She keeps apologizin'
|
| He says They don’t bother me.
|
| I’ve got 2 babies of my own.
|
| One’s 36, one’s 23.
|
| Huh, it’s hard to believe, but …
|
| -Chorus-
|
| You’re gonna miss this
|
| You’re gonna want this back
|
| You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast
|
| These Are Some Good Times
|
| So take a good look around
|
| You may not know it now
|
| But you’re gonna miss this
|
| You’re gonna miss this
|
| Yeah, you’re gonna miss this |
