That old truck's out in the yard
Grandpa ain't got to movin' it far
And that old boat ain't seen water in feels like a century
I went by there yesterday
He didn't have too much to say, but I could tell by his smile that he was listenin'
So I hugged his neck and drove away, hell, I couldn't help but think

Life ain't cheap, so don't live fast
Don't take for granted the times you have
'Cause the ones that you're leavin' back home
When you get back, they might be gone
Old trucks die and rivers run dry
You nevеr know the miles you get on this ridе
So damn right, I'm spendin' mine
Takin' the one thing you can't buy, time

Sittin' on the river, called a couple buddies
Told them, "Come on with some nine-to-five money
We can sit out here and celebrate
All the time we ain't gon' waste"

No, life ain't cheap, so don't live fast
Don't take for granted the times you have
'Cause the ones that you're leavin' back home
When you get back, they might be gone
Old trucks die and rivers run dry
You never know the miles you get on this ride
So damn right, I'm spendin' mine
Takin' the one thing you can't buy, time

And I took the next day off, picked grandpa up, hitched that old boat
With a can of crawlers, a six-pack of beer and a couple catchin'-up Zebcos

Life ain't cheap, so don't live fast
Don't take for granted the times you have
'Cause the ones that you're leavin' back home
When you get back, they might be gone
Old trucks die and rivers run dry
You never know the miles you get on this ride
So damn right, I'm spendin' mine
Takin' the one thing you can't buy, time

Takin' my time
