Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate holdin' 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 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 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 old boy
Same sweet girl
Five years down the road
There's going to 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'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 taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old

  • this is to my little girl rip i will allways love you

  • i dont country  because listen now , nice

  • The best thing about this song is the story

  • I dont like country either but I sure like this song

  • I remember the first time I heard country was when I was 8 years old in my babysitters car on the way to school. Never gave it a second thought when I was in my teens. Now that I'm older now, I can hear the meaning in these songs. This one especially. My kid is gonna hear country when he's 8 years old, and maybe he'll do the good thing and pick up on it quicker than his old man.

  • I dont like country i like rap and stuff like that but when i hear this song i cry like a little girl and im not proud of that

  • good song yall
