Fun Having Fun

My granddad's pride and joy was a '49 Ford Much as he loved grandma he loved that old truck more I thought it was time that I took it for a stroll I had a big old pair for a boy just eight years old Grounding second gear, drifting through the cows Ripping through the pasture when the breaks finally gave out He was screaming from the porch, I was crashing through the fence (no) And he said, "What do you have to say for what you've done?" In my defense, I said It's fun having fun There's only so many trips around the sun Of a gun, what's done is done Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun My dad kept a can of gas behind our old barn I made sure I was careful when I poured it on the lawn That fire was beautiful and the wind started to blow That ember hit the hayloft and I watched the sucker go It didn't take long at all, those forty foot flames I remember feeling grateful that the fire was not contained The fireman had a hose and my daddy had a belt He said, "What do you have to say for what you've done?" I just felt that It's fun having fun There's only so many trips around the sun Of a gun, what's done is done Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun Them country boys doing ninety-five down an old dirt road Hotbox in a minivan squinting through the smoke Blue lights keep flashing and they haul our asses in (damn it, boy) I look - up in the mugshot but I'd do it all again If you're dumb (yes, you're dumb) you gotta be tough (well, you're tough) If you're smart you might miss the thrill of blowing things up That's enough of a life that's boring And the worst decisions make good stories Grab your helmet and your cape Break a leg, duct tape it straight Chicks dig scars and get-well cakes Fun to have some fun There's only so many trips around the sun Of a gun, what's done is done Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun having fun having fun, ah-woo --- Fun Having Fun - Zac Brown Band
