Young Buck

On Earned It

Daddy woke me up, said "Gotta get a move on

Sun is comin' up and we don't wanna lose one

Rifle's in the truck bed, better get your boots on, young buck"

Mossy Oak camo, talkin' in a whisper

Got to load the ammo, finger on the trigger

Sittin' in the stand I was feelin' pretty big for a young buck

I told him had to be the first kid in the third grade

To tag one on his first day

He said son won't ya slow it on down

Ya might not see it right now

But bein' out here ain't all about the years worth of deer that you hung up

The seasons get to goin' too fast

So try to be where your boots are at

Just take it from me, you think you are, but you ain't always gonna be this young buck

A couple years older, couple trails wiser

Tongue a little looser, aim a little tighter

Caught me sneakin' out for a girl with his Shiners

Thought he's gonna gimme that brimstone and fire

'Stead he woke me up at the crack of dawn for a man to man tree stand talk

Damn I was tired

I didn't know how much I needed that reminder

He said son won’t ya slow it on down

Ya might not see it right now

But bein' out here ain't all about the years worth of deer that you hung up

The seasons get to goin' too fast

So try to be where your boots are at

Just take it from me, you think you are, but you ain't always gonna be this young buck

I know you're tired of bein' young but

You still got a ways to grow up

So just take your time

Oh won’t ya take your time

Yeah huntin' weather comes and goes, you hang your guns and trophies up

You find a girl, before you know, you settle down, you're raisin' up this young buck

I know you're tired of bein' young but

You still got a ways to grow up

So just take your time

Young buck

I Know you're tired of bein' young but

You still got a ways to grow up

So just take your time

Oh won’t ya take your time

I said boy won’t ya take your time
