Fun Having Fun

Lyrics by：Zac Brown/Ben Simonetti/Kurt Thomas/Kenny Habul

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 brakes finally gave out

He's screaming from the porch I was crashing through the fence

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 95 down

An old dirt road

Hotbox in a minivan squinting through the smoke

Blue lights keep flashing

And they haul our asses in d**n it boy

I look f**ked 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
