Jake Owen - Back lyrics

[Intro: Colt Ford] You know, we get caught up doin' everything. We're not promised tomorrow. Sometimes you need to close your eyes and just go back [Chorus: Jake Owen] Back When life was simple as that I didn't know I'd miss it so bad When this whole world had way less worries, nobody in a hurry and back To mama's home cookin' and dad Was baitin' my hook and I'm sitting on a tailgate Thinking 'bout those days just Wish I was Back [Verse 1: Colt Ford] When I think about how it used to be, Lord it was so simple then Dirt-bike and a fishin' pole at a fishin' hole with all my friends Nothin' better than a BB gun in my backyard just huntin' squirrels Took a ring from my mama's drawer and gave it to this little girl Her mama called mine and then my daddy had to have a talk I remember like yesterday what he said when we took that walk "Son don't you ever tell no lie, even if the truth burns" Everyday my mind goes back to all those lessons learned And I wanna go [Chorus: Jake Owen] Back When life was simple as that I didn't know I'd miss it so bad When this whole world had way less worries, nobody in a hurry and back To mama's home cookin' and dad Was baitin' my hook and I'm sitting on a tailgate Thinking 'bout those days just Wish I was Back [Verse 2: Colt Ford] I remember that Texaco that Mr. Logan used to own They turned in something else and Mr. Logan's long gone My best friend David, he grew up ridin' in a wheelchair Thought I'd give a million bucks if that old boy was still here Ain't it funny how time goes by and memories seem to fade away They built a parking lot on the baseball field we used to play That skating ring is closed down, but now I see it's back again I remember those all night skates, very first dates and my old friend [Chorus: Jake Owen] Back When life was simple as that I didn't know I'd miss it so bad When this whole world had way less worries, nobody in a hurry and back To mama's home cookin' and dad Was baitin' my hook and I'm sitting on a tailgate Thinking 'bout those days just Wish I was Back [Verse 3: Colt Ford] My dad's gettin' older now but son he's still as tough as ever Him and my little boy are best friends now, wish it could last forever My mama is still the one I talk to when I need advice She never ever let me down God what will I do when she's not around [Chorus: Jake Owen] Back When life was simple as that I didn't know I'd miss it so bad When this whole world had way less worries, nobody in a hurry and back To mama's home cookin' and dad Was baitin' my hook and I'm sitting on a tailgate Thinking 'bout those days just Wish I was Back Back When life was simple as that I didn't know I'd miss it so bad When this whole world had way less worries, nobody in a hurry and back To mama's home cookin' and dad Was baitin' my hook and I'm sitting on a tailgate Thinking 'bout those days just Wish I was Back
