River Of Time - Jake Owen

Five years old, skippin' rocks across that Cypress Creek

Mama said, «Don't you forget you got church shoes on your feet»

Daddy smoked them Salems up and wore them sideburns down

My world was on a big as that little blink and you miss it town

But we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Driftin' on to where we’re goin'

Hangin' on to what’s left behind

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Muscle car and a letter jacket, crusin' the main street drag

Cool as a can of Copenhagen and a six pack in a bag

We were all about them college girls when they came home on break

Thought those days would last forever and growin' up would wait

But we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Driftin' on to where we’re goin'

Hangin' on to what’s left behind

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Now daddy’s in his easy chair, mama’s hair’s turned grey

She laughs and says it’s all because of my young and wilder days

I found a girl that makes me smile, I’ll never let her go

Growin' old don’t scare me none, I believe in streets of gold

But we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Driftin' on to where we’re goin'

Hangin' on to what’s left behind

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride that river of time

Yeah, we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

Well, we ride that river of time
