Lyrics
From the moment a man paints
His guest room pink he can't help
But think about the reason I'm
Cleaning this gun tonight sitting
Here on the front porch swing
Waiting on a shined-up Chevy
Emblem to show up in my driveway
I've been dreading this for sixteen years
Three months and a couple of days
Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the
Clutch and off the brakes 'Til what's
Down the line ain't down the line
No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
You figure the man that taught
You how to fish os madе of steel
And bricks it's just strangers' and
A few good buddies' grandpas that
Wind up sick And then one day
You're wearing all black Crushed
Behind a Cadillac
Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the
Clutch and off the brakes 'Til what's
Down the line ain't down the line
No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
As sure as Pawpaws pass on
And baby girls grow up
Can't even think about the day
What the preacher's gonna say
The rice, the tie, the tux
Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the
Clutch and off the brakes 'Til what's
Down the line ain't down the line
No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
Yeah, even though you know it's coming
Mm
His guest room pink he can't help
But think about the reason I'm
Cleaning this gun tonight sitting
Here on the front porch swing
Waiting on a shined-up Chevy
Emblem to show up in my driveway
I've been dreading this for sixteen years
Three months and a couple of days
Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the
Clutch and off the brakes 'Til what's
Down the line ain't down the line
No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
You figure the man that taught
You how to fish os madе of steel
And bricks it's just strangers' and
A few good buddies' grandpas that
Wind up sick And then one day
You're wearing all black Crushed
Behind a Cadillac
Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the
Clutch and off the brakes 'Til what's
Down the line ain't down the line
No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
As sure as Pawpaws pass on
And baby girls grow up
Can't even think about the day
What the preacher's gonna say

Even though you know it's coming
Like a freight train humming from
A mile away you think you'll be ready
With life's lead foot leaning on the

No more that's how time does it
You just crack a beer 'cause someday's
Herе and dang if you can't do nothing
Even though you know it's coming
Yeah, even though you know it's coming
Mm
