My granddad's pride and joy was a Ford E-9 Ford As much as he loved grandma, he loved that old truck more I thought it was time that I took it for a stroll I had a big ol' pair for a boy to say he was old Grounded second year, driftin' through the cows Rippin' through the pasture when the brakes finally gave out He was screamin' from the porch I was crashin' through the fence And he said, What do you have to say for what you've done? In my defense, I said, It's fun having fun There's only so many trips round the sun A gun, what's done is done Hold it flat, cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun My dad kept a can of gas behind our old barn I made sure I was careful when I poured it on the lawn The fire was beautiful and the wind started to blow That ember hit the hail off and I watched the sucker go It didn't take long at all, it was forty foot flames I remember feeling grateful that the fire was now contained The fireman had a hose and my daddy had a bell He said, What do you have to say for what you've done? I just felt that it's fun having fun There's only so many trips round the sun A gun, what's done is done Hold it flat, cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun Ten country boys from ninety-five down an old dirt road Hot boxin' a minivan, squintin' through the smoke Blue lights came flashin' and they hauled our asses in I looked fucked up in a mug shot, but I'd do it all again If you're dumb, you gotta be tough If you're smart, you might miss the thrill of blowin' things up That's enough of life, that's boring And the worst decisions make good stories Grab your helmet and your cape Break a leg, duct tape a string Chicks dig scars and get well cakes Fun having fun There's only so many trips round the sun A gun, what's done is done Hold it flat, cause none of it lasts But it's fun having fun
