huntin by yourself

Luke Combs

He ran out of that bedroom
bout as gung-ho as he could be in his Mossy Oak
Took a first hunt picture on my phone
fore he fell asleep on the way
I held the gun, he held the light
A cup of coffee and a can of Sprite
The stand was only ten feet high
but on top of the world that day

I already knew he wouldn t see a thing
Been three more times and it s always the same

Cause he moves too much and he talks too loud
But I don t mind cause I m finding out
That even if it s just time we re killin
it s never felt more like livin
They ll make you cuss and wear your patience thin
But next thing you know, they re all grown up and then
You re huntin by yourself again

Well I ve heard em say these days don t last
I know the years are gonna fly fast
Right out the door and never come back
As bad as you want em too
Pretty soon, he ll sit in his own tree
Be a bat outta hell with a set o keys
Chasin girls is gonna be all he ll wanna do

He ll have a lot less time for his old man
So I m gonna soak it up while I still can

When he moves too much and he talks too loud
When I don t mind cause I m finding out
That even if it s just time we re killin
it s never felt more like livin
They ll make you cuss and wear your patience thin
But next thing you know, they re all grown up and then
You re huntin by yourself again

Runs out of that bedroom bout as gung-ho
as he could be in his Mossy Oak
Hop in the truck and off we go
I can t help but smile as he don t know

He moves too much and he talks too loud
But I don t mind cause I m finding out
That even if it s just time we re killin
it s never felt more like livin
They ll make you cuss and wear your patience thin
But next thing you know, they re all grown up and then
You re huntin by yourself again
