don't Take The Girl
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
Little girl came through the front gate
Holdin' a fishin' pole
His dad looked down and smiled
He 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, don't 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 won't be any harm\"
And Johnny said \"Take my money
Take my wallet
Take my credit cards
Here's the watch that my Grandpa gave me
Here's 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 gonna be a little one and she
Says it's time to go
Doctor says the baby's fine
But you'll 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
Significado de la letra
Johnny's story begins with a heartwarming memory of a young boy eager to go fishing with his dad. However, their fishing trip takes an unexpected turn when a little girl arrives with a fishing pole, prompting Johnny's dad to include her in their outing despite Johnny's initial reluctance. As the years pass, Johnny and the same sweet girl grow closer, sharing tender moments at the picture show. But their bliss is shattered when a stranger threatens the girl with a gun, leading Johnny to offer everything he has to protect her, pleading for her safety.
Time progresses, and the couple welcomes a baby into their lives. Joy turns to sorrow as the doctor reveals a devastating truth: the baby is healthy, but the girl's health is rapidly declining. In a moment of desperation, Johnny falls to his knees and bargains with a higher power, willing to sacrifice everything to save his beloved.
Throughout Johnny's life, the theme of selfless love and sacrifice resonates deeply. From his childhood plea to his final, desperate prayer, the song weaves a poignant tale of love, loss, and unwavering devotion. The narrative captures the essence of love's enduring strength and the willingness to go to any lengths to protect those we hold dear.
