I had a quarter tank of gas
Dad slipped me a hundred bucks
Said: Your mom told me to give you that
But that's the last time I'll fill her up
He turned his head and wiped his eyes
Said somethin' 'bout the pollen in the air
Don't care how late it is tonight
Make sure you call when you get there
I was chompin' at the bit
'Fore I put it in reverse
So I guess this is it
Any famous last words?
There's a speed limit sign for a reason
Earn your shirt, find a church where you'll find a good girl
Give your keys to a friend when you're drinkin'
When you mess up, son, it ain't the end of the world
Some days, you're barely hangin' on
You'll make it through and survive
You're gonna get some things wrong
Just get the right things right
I handed my brother both the rings
Dad just shook his head and laughed
Said: I wouldn't trust him with those things
Hell, you might not get 'em back
He straightened up my tie and said
There's sure a lot of people here
Boy, what's on your mind? And I
Said: I need another beer
I was chompin' at the bit
Back room of that church
So I guess this is it
Any famous last words?
You put a ring on her hand for a reason
Thank the Lord that she's yours 'cause you found a good girl
Every time not to say what you're thinkin'
When you find it's alright, it ain't the end of the world
Some days, you're barely hangin' on
You'll make it through and survive
You're gonna get some things wrong
Just get the right things right
Lookin' through the nursery glass, dad put his arm around me
Said: I don't know if I'm ready for this
Said: Son, you're never gonna be
But that's your name on her wrist for a reason
Say your prayers, braid her hair, be there for that little girl
Soak it up 'cause, you know what? You're gonna make it
She's eighteen, and you think it's the end of the world
Some days, you're barely hangin' on
You'll make it through and survive
You're gonna get some things wrong
Just get the right things right
I know you nervous 'bout it all
Don't worry, son, so was I
You're gonna get some things wrong
Just get the right things right
Just get the right things right
