Go Right Now Songtext
von Sam Grow

Just a kid learnin′ how to fish
On the banks of the river
My old man with a cricket in his hand
Teachin' me how to stick ′er
Just once I wish his old watch
Would fall out in the water
Cuz that sun was goin' down
And Monday's rollin′ ′round

Dad, why we gotta go right now
Can't we just stay a little longer
So much we could talk about
Wishin′ this day could stretch a little farther
Yeah I know we gotta go but why we gotta go right now
Can't we stick around or maybe slow it down
Dad, why we gotta go right now


Five speed F-150
Smellin′ them gears burning
He was shotgun ridin'
Smilin′ and laughin'
Knowin' I was just learnin′
Yeah that field knew them wheels
We tore it up without warnin′
Then we dropped the tailgate down
And shared our first round
He said son watch your pourin'
You still got school in the mornin′

Man, why we gotta go right now
Can't we just stay a little longer
So much we could talk about
Wishin′ this day could stretch a little farther
Yeah I know we gotta go but why we gotta go right now
Can't we stick around
Or maybe slow it down
Dad, why we gotta go right now

And I drove all night so I could be by his hospital bed
I made it just in time, he opened his eyes and I said


Dad, why you gotta go right now
Can′t you just stay a little longer
So much we could talk about
Wishin' this day could stretch a little farther
Yeah I know you gotta go but why you gotta go right now
Can't you stick around
Just for me maybe slow it down
Yeah I know you′re heaven bound
This ain′t goodbye - it's see ya around
Why you gotta go right now
Dad, why you gotta go right now
