still There's marks on the pantry door of that little house
Where Mama used to measure us
I'm proud to say that's my home where I was raised
But that ain't where I grew up
See, I gained a little on Father Time
The summer my Granddaddy died
The first time I saw Mama cry
Man, that sure was tough
Felt like I put on a few years
Watching Daddy wipe her tears In my little coat and tie standing in that cemetery mud
That's where I grew up
My senior year, a case of beer out on the river bank
Getting a head start on twenty one
That's the place that made me feel just like a man
But that ain't where I grew up
See I gained a little on Father Time
That night I crossed that center line
I bet I rolled a dozen times
Next thing I knew I was waking up upside down
Praying God just get me out Then I hit my knees beside what was left of my truck
Hey, that's where I grew up
You learn as you go, that's how you grow
See, I gained a little on Father Time
When me and her, had our first big fight
I said some things, I made her cry
She packed all her stuff
The boy in me said let her go But the man in me said pull her close It was time to find out which one I was
Standing in a doorway holding on to love
That's where I grew up
Oh, that's where I grew up
