One Day You'll Get It

Turn the lights out when you leave
Money don't grow on trees
Grass ain't greener on the other side
Can't outshine that golden rule
Can't learn everything at school
Don't feel like it, but time flies

I know half of that went somewhere
Way over your head
You think I'm wastin' your time
Yeah, I'm wastin' my breath
On somethin' you don't get

One day, this truck I'm drivin'
Will be the wheels you spin
These words are flyin' by, but
They'll start sinkin' in
Just like these eighty acres
This house where you were raised
Everything that I'm tryin' to say
One day, you'll get it
One day, one day

Youth is wasted on the young
Sometimes, it's best to bite your tongue
Don't let your anger spend the night
I know you don't understand why
We're up and at 'em quarter after five
You think it's just a can of worms, couple Zebcos
Sunflower seeds spittin' out the window

One day, this truck I'm drivin'
Will be the wheels you spin
These words are flyin' by, but
They'll start sinkin' in
Just like these eighty acres
This house where you were raised
Everything that I'm tryin' to say
One day, you'll get it

All the lines by my eyes, all the nights that I spent away
You'll get it
Granddad's .22, all the truth in that old King James
You'll get it
Every single thing that I got in my name
You'll get it
One day, you'll get it

One day, this truck I'm drivin'
Will be the wheels you spin
These words are flyin' by, but
They'll start sinkin' in
Just like these eighty acres
This house where you were raised
Everything that I'm tryin' to say
One day, you'll get it
One day, one day
One day, you'll get it
One day, one day
