Never Grow Up Boy - Del Mccoury Band Lyrics

Never Grow Up Boy

I ain’t seen 18 in a long time

I ain’t seen my baby for a while

But I'll be home by Monday mornin’

After I drive 200 miles


I make my living with a guitar

My job is standing on a stage

I played in churches, fairs, and dive bars

I ain’t never gonna act my age



CHORUS:

Don't never let it be said darlin’

That what I do don't bring me joy

Climb in the seat beside my Martin

Cause I'm a guitar pickin’, bluegrass singing

Never grow up boy



Sometimes when I look in the mirror

I see the boy I used to be

And after all these years its clearer

The dreams of boys can set men free



I know I've put you through some hard times

Those lonely nights I wasn't there

But you were never far from my mind

Your love was with me everywhere



CHORUS:



I ain’t seen 18 in a long time

Ain’t seen my baby for awhile
