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 morning
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

Don't never let it be said darling
That what I do don't bring me joy
Climb in the seat beside my Martin
'Cause I'm a guitar picking, 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 it's 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

Don't never let it be said darling
That what I do don't bring me joy
Climb in the seat beside my Martin
'Cause I'm a guitar picking, bluegrass singing, never grow up boy

Don't never let it be said darling
That what I do don't bring me joy
Climb in the seat beside my Martin
'Cause I'm a guitar picking, bluegrass singing, never grow up boy

I make my living with a guitar
Ain't seen my baby for a while
