_ _ I [G] was 16 years old and like any [E] other 16 year old [Dm] boy, _ I had [D] one thing.
_ _ _ _ [D]
I wanted a gun.
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ [C] _ [D] And so me and my daddy were riding down the road one day and the reason we were riding
down [Dm] the road was he had to put a stop, a comma in his day to take me to baseball practice. _
And I was 16. _ _ _ _ _
I looked at myself and I said, Daddy, you know, if you would buy me a car, I got $500. _ _
And if you'd loan me $500, there's this little car over here for $1,000.
If I could take the girls to school and drive me back and forth to baseball practice, save you losses.
_ He looked at me and he said, Son, _ you keep that $500 _ _ and I will buy you the car on one condition.
_ [D]
I [Dm] said, what's that?
And he said, if you [E] take that loan.
