[Intro]
Damn, it's been like
It's been way too long
But, ah, it's all good, though
We know you watchin' down
Good die young
Check it out
[Verse]
Daddy beat me to the grave
If he didn't, shit, he prolly woulda beat me to my grave
Zero shits, is what he gave
Tryna learn to be a man
Wish he stuck around, and taught me
But he battlin' them demons
Pourin' whisky in his coffee
[Verse]
Whoa
Thorough, that's the way I's bred
Whoa
Don't get knocked upside yo' damn head
Whoa
Livin' legend 'til the day I'm dead
Rollin' stone, and my home is the place I lay my head
I ain't mad, Daddy
Watch me make the world mad at me
Told my girl thе other day, I'ma die fat and happy
[Verse]
With a Caddy, in the drivеway
Pool, in the back yard
Fools, in the back yard
Barbecuin', at the door
Hell, in the rear view
Heaven, on my hub
Baby, angel on my side
And she smile, 'cause I'm her baby
Yeah, and she know I got her, to the grave
If the day come early
Celebrate, 'cause I'm good, baby
[Verse]
My Momma told me, when I's just a young boy
Said the good die young
Yeah, the good die young, oh no
And I don't know why it is, your Daddy gone
Guess the good die young
The good die young, oh no
[Verse]
I ain't wanna write this song
Can't believe it's been this long
Damn, where the time gone?
It's like the hands on the time, wrong
'Cause you ain't s'posed to be gone, yet
That's my homie, John Bartlett
Good die young
Guess the good die young, oh
[Verse]
I had a dream the other day
We was kickin' it
Just sippin' on some vodka lemonade
Like you never passed away
Guess, I'll never understand
Wishin' we could talk, again
Battlin' these demons
Pourin' whisky on your coffin, man
[Verse]
Whoa
Pour out a little clear water
And just know, I'm always there for your daughter
Aye, yo!
Even snuck her in for Upchurch
Huh, and you ca' chill
I taught her these words
[Chorus]
My Momma told me, when I's just a young boy
Said, the good die young
Yeah, the good die young, oh no
And I don't know why it is, your Daddy gone
Guess the good die young
The good die young, oh no
[Bridge]
Blue eyes to the blue skies
Moonshine in the moonlight
And we party all night, all night, all night
'Cause we know you alright, alright, alright
Alright, now
Blue eyes to the blue skies
Moonshine in the moonlight
And we party all night, all night, all night
Because we know you alright, alright, alright
Alright, now
[Outro]
My Momma told me, when I's just a young boy
Said the good die young
Yeah, the good die young, oh no
And, I don't know why it is, your Daddy gone
Guess, the good die young
The good die young, oh no
