[Verse 1]
You wanna grow up to paint houses like me
A trailer in my yard till you're twenty-three
You wanna feel old after forty-two years
Keep dropping the hammer and grinding the gears
Well, I used to go out in a Mustang
A 302 Mach One in green
Me and your mama made you in the back
And I sold it to buy her a ring
And I learned not to say much of nothing
So I figured you already know
But in case you don't or maybe forgot
I'll lay it out real nice and slow
[Chorus]
Don't call what you're wearing an outfit
Don't ever say your car is broke
Don't worry about losing your accent
A Southern man tells better jokes
Have fun, but stay clear of the needle
Call home on your sister's birthday
Don’t tell 'em you're bigger than Jesus, don't give it away
Don't give it away

Don't give it away
