[Verse 1] Being young got old I couldnt wait to grow up When I finally hit eighteen I got out of this tired old town I didnt get back much As much as mama wanted The few times I did get back It didnt hit me like it is right now [Chorus 1] The house got small Dad lost his hair The rope swing and the trees arent there The neighbor, she aint sweet old Mrs. Jones Little sisters not right down the hall Rex aint around to fetch his ball No need to ride to grandmas down the road Damn old Father Time for stealing home [Verse 2] It didnt take two weeks From the time the sign first went up Dad said the folks who bought it Sure do seem to love the place Mom called and I came To help her load the UHaul Seems for every box I pack I find another yesterday See Willie Nelson LiveGet tickets as low as 14You might also like[Chorus 2] The house was huge and dad had hair There was a rope swing on the tree right there No one baked a pie like Mrs. Jones And we grew like weeds on the kitchen wall Rex, he lived to fetch his ball And grandma was a bike ride down the road Damn old Father Time for stealing home [Outro] Little sisters not right down the hall Rex aint around to fetch his ball No need to ride to grandmas down the road Damn old Father Time for stealing home
