Joe Nichols - Ain't Nobody Gonna Take That From Me lyrics

I remember when baseball was everything It was Little League but what a big game There were two men on and one man out I got a fastball hanging outside I swung that bat with all my might and the ball was gone They say I knocked the cover off It was the only homer that I ever had You shoulda seen my dad And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me As long as I'm holding on Heaven wouldn't ask it of me The devil on a good day ain't that strong I'm keeping it here inside me As long as I live and breathe The ball was soaring and the crowd was roaring And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me I was nineteen, it was a good job Moving TVs on a loading dock Till the boss said: Son Try to lose every seventh one I got it worked out with a good friend Keep your mouth shut, and we'll cut you in Now what do you say Don't you want to be rich one day I lost a real good job that night But I kept my pride And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me As long as I'm holding on Heaven wouldn't ask it of me The devil on a good day ain't that strong I'm keeping it here inside me As long as I live and breathe I said goodbye with my head held high And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me And sometimes it feels like My best years are behind me Then somehow, out of nowhere Something sneaks up to remind me Like this morning, I woke up To a little voice that spoke up Saying: Daddy, please Fix a bowl of Rice Krispies You're the bestest friend that I ever had You know I love you Dad And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me As long as I'm holding on Heaven wouldn't ask it of me The devil on a good day ain't that strong I'm keeping it here inside me As long as I live and breathe I got more than I ever asked for And there ain't nobody gonna take that from me
