DON'T TAKE THE GIRL
Words and Music by Craig Martin and Larry W. Johnson


Insert

[Gsus]Johnny's dadd[G]y [Gsus]was takin' him fisi[G]n'
[Gsus]When he was eight years [G]old ---

Insert

[Gsus]A little gir[G]l [Gsus]came through the front [G]gate
[Gsus]Holdin a fishin' [G]pole
[Bm]His dad looked down and smiled,
[C]Said, "We can't leave her behind

Son I know you don't want her to go

Someday you'll change your mind."

And Johnny said,
[Gsus]Take Jimmy John[G]son [Gsus]take Tommy Tomp[G]son
[G]Ta[sus]ke my best friend [G]Bo.
[Gsus]Take anybody that you [G]want a[Gsus]s long as she don't [G]go
[Am]Take any boy in the world -- Daddy, please
[D]Don't take the girl

Insert

[Gsus]Same ol' bo[G]y, [Gsus]same sweet gir[G]l, [Gsus]ten years down the [G]road

Insert

[Gsus]He held her tight and kissed her lips [G]in [Gsus]front of the picture show.
[Bm]A stranger came and pulled a gun and [C]grabbed her by the arm
[Bm]Said, "If you do what I tell you to, [C]there won't be any harm."

And Johnny said
[Gsus]"Take my mone[G]y, [Gsus]take my wall[G]et, [Gsus]take my credit c[G]ards
[Gsus]Here's the watch that my grandpa gave [G]me, [Gsus]here's the key to my [G]car.
[Am]Mr., give it a whirl, but please, d[D]on't take the girl.

Insert

[Gsus]Same ol' bo[G]y, [Gsus]same sweet gir[G]l, [Gsus]five years down the [G]road

Insert

[Gsus]There's gonna be a little [G]one [Gsus]and she says, "It's time to [G]go."
[Bm]Doctor said, "The baby's fine [C]but , you'll have to leave
Bm c
`Cause his mama's fadin' fast," and Johhny hit his knees.

And then he prayed,
[Gsus]"Take the very breath you gave [G]me, [Gsus]take the heart from my [G]chest.
[Gsus]I'll gladly take her place if you'll have [G]me
[Gsus]Make this my last req[G]uest
[Am]Take me out of this world, God, please, [D]don't take the girl.
