Daddy woke me up, said, gotta get a move on
Sun is coming up and we don't wanna lose one
Raffles in the truck, baby, get your boots on, young boy
Lost the old camo, talkin' in a whisper
Got to load the ammo, finger on the trigger
Sittin' in the stand, I was feelin' pretty big for a young boy
I told you
Had to be the first kid in the third grade
To tag one on his first day
He said, son, won't you slow it on down
You might not see it right now
But being out here ain't all about the years worth of dead that you hung up
The seasons get you goin' too fast
So try to be where your boots are at
Just take it from me
You think you are, but you ain't always gonna be this young boy
A couple years older, a couple trails wiser
Tongue-a-loo
And a little tighter
Caught me sneakin' out for a girl with the shiners
Thought he was gonna give me that brimstone and fire
Instead he woke me up at the crack of dawn
For a man to marry
Tree stand tall
Damn, I was tired
I didn't know how much I needed that reminder
He said, son, won't you slow it on down
You might not see it right now
But being out here ain't all about the years worth of dead that you hung up
The seasons get you goin' too fast
So try to be where your boots are at
Just take it from me
You think you are, but you ain't always gonna be this young boy
I know you're tired of being young, but
You still got a way to grow up
So just take your time
Just take your time
Oh, won't you take your time
Your heart and way that comes and goes
You hang your guns and trophies up
You find a girl before you know
You're settin' down, you're raisin' up
You drink a little too much




I hope you still got a way to grow up
Just take your time
Just take your time
Yes, I would
This young boy
I know you're tired of being young, but
You still got a way to grow up
So just take your time
This young boy



Just take your time
Yes, I would
This young boy
I know you're tired of being young, but

Yes, I would
Yes, I would

I said, boy, won't you take your time?
I said, boy, won't you take your time?
I said, boy, won't you take your time?
