LYRICS:

Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'

When he was eight years old

A little girl came through the front gate holdin' a fishing pole

His dad looked down and smiled said, "We can't leave her behind

Son I know you don't want her to go, but someday you'll change your mind."

And johnny said, "Take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson, take my best friend Bo

Take anybody that you want as long as she don't go

Take any boy in the world

Daddy please dont take the girl."

Same old boy,

Same sweet girl,

Ten years down the road

He held her tight and kissed her lips

In front of the picture show

Stranger came and pulled a gun

Grabbed her by the arm said "If you do what I tell you to, there wont be any harm."

And johnny said, "Take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards

Heres the watch that my grandpa gave me

Heres the key to my car

Mister give it a whirl

But please don't take the girl."

Same old boy,

Same sweet girl,

Five years down the road

There's going to be a little one and she says it's time to go

Doctor says the baby's fine but youll have to leave

cause his momma's fading fast and johnny hit his knees and there he prayed

Take the very breath you gave me

Take the heart from my chest

I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me

Make this my last request

Take me out of this world

God, please don't take the girl

Johnny's daddy

Was taking him fishin'

When he was eight years old...

THIS PROBABLY HAS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST MEMORABLE AND ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE COUNTRY SONGS OF ALL TIME - "DON'T TAKE THE GIRL" BY TIM MCGRAW! :-) THIS SONG HIT THE POP CHARTS IN THE SPRING OF 1994 AND THE ONLY COUNTRY SONG I CAN THINK OF THAT HIT THE POP CHARTS IN A BIG WAY THAT YEAR! I WASN'T REALLY FAMILIAR WITH THIS SONG THOUGH UNTIL A YEAR LATER, WHEN SOMEONE INCLUDED THIS SONG IN OUR HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR YEAR VIDEO YEARBOOK! :-) THIS SONG REALLY GOT INTO MY HEAD AND THEN I SAW IT A LOT ON THE CMT CHANNEL THAT SUMMER TOO! DEFINITELY REMINDED ME OF MY LAST DAYS OF HIGH SCHOOL! :-) AND THE LYRICS DEFINITELY TELL AS STORY TOO! THE PROGRESSION OF THIS YOUNG MAN WHO REALLY LOVES THIS GIRL FROM PUPPY LOVE AS A BOY TO HIS WIFE AS AN ADULT IS REALLY WELL-CAPTURED IN THE LYRICS! THE THING THAT REALLY TOUCHED A NERVE WITH ME ABOUT THIS SONG IS HOW MUCH THIS GUY IS DEVOTED TO HIS GIRL THAT HE IS WILLING TO SACRIFICE JUST ABOUT ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING! THAT IS TRUE LOVE! :-) I ONLY SAW THE MUSIC VIDEO A HANDFUL OF TIMES BUT IT'S REALLY WELL-DONE TOO I THINK! :-) IT REALLY GOES ALONG PERFECTLY WITH THE SONG! LIKE THE SCENES WHERE TIM IS ON STAGE TOO - BEAUTIFUL! :-) COUNTRY MUSIC IS DEFINITELY NOT MY CUP OF TEA MUSICALLY, BUT WOW, WHENEVER I COME ACROSS ONE THAT HITS THE POP CHARTS, I JUST LOVE THEM! :-) THIS WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE VERY BEST COUNTRY SONGS/MUSIC VIDEOS OF THE '90S HANDS DOWN! I'M NOT SURE IF HE'S STILL IN MUSIC, BUT I'D LOVE IT IF HE EVER CAME OUT WITH ANOTHER SONG LIKE THIS ONE! :-) #TIMMCGRAW #DONTTAKETHEGIRL

Ok in other words he didn't want to take his future wife fishing so in that verse it shows the irony that he would rather anyone go but his future wife

I remember the first time I heard this song in the spring/summer of 1994 when I was 5. I didn't really understand it at the time but I eventually listened to the lyrics a bit closer and it's such a sad ending :( but I like to think that the mama did survive.And I certainly know how 8-year-old Johnny feels. Even today I like it to be just the guys sometimes and don't want any girly girls around.

Its crazy to think really. How a person can love someone so much . willing to do anything in your power to protect that loved one.... die for them! Just the part where he says "take the very breath you gave me, take the heart from my chest, just please dont take the girl". I mean come on! Thats crazyy! Makes you want to fall in love so hard with someone. Spend every waking moment with them, doing anything to make her/him smile! Just crazy.
