It won't be long ( cover)

It won't be long

'Til that shot of Jack works your nerve up to get her name

It won't be long

'Til the parking lot kiss by your truck turns into a date

It won't be long 'til your buddies wonder where you been

'Cause you skipped out on a duck trip again

It won't be long 'til you see your old man was right

When he said, "The funny thing about life is

It might be crazy, it might be sweet

Might not be perfect and it might be

The last thing that you ever saw coming

But it gets a little better when it's spinning 'round something, so

Buy the drink, steal the kiss, make the trip, take the risk

Love hard as you can and just hold on

'Cause life might be a lot of things

But it won't be long"

It won't be long

'Til you take a starter house to the studs and paint it white

It won't be long

'Til there's a crib where the pool table was, and you're up all night

It won't be long 'til you're sitting at a ballgame

And your last name's at the plate, wearing seven again

And right there in your folding chair

That's where it all sinks in

It might be crazy, it might be sweet

Might not be perfect and it might be

The last thing that you ever saw coming

But it gets a little better when it's spinning 'round something, so

Buy the drink, steal the kiss, make the trip, take the risk

Love hard as you can and just hold on

'Cause life might be a lot of things

But it won't be long

It won't be long

'Til it's a beer at a bar with the boy that you raised

He's a man with a girl and a boy on the way

And it's faster and faster, it ain't slowing down

'Til you're talking 'bout life and you're telling him how

It might be crazy, it might be sweet

Might not be perfect and it might be

The last thing that you ever saw coming

But it gets a little better when it's spinning 'round something, so

Buy the drink, steal the kiss, make the trip, take the risk

Love hard as you can and just hold on

'Cause life might be a lot of things

But it won't be long

No, no

It won't be long
