Cleaning This Gun (Come on In Boy) Lyrics


The Declaration of Independence
Think I could tell you that first sentence but then Im lost
I can't begin to count the theories
I've had pounded in my head that I forgotI don't remember all that Spanish
Or The Gettysburg Address
But there is one speech from high school
I'll never forgetCome on in boy, sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter, do you now?
Yeah, we think she's something elseShe's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
Thats what she'll get, aint it son?Now, y'all run along and have some fun
I'll see you when you get back
Bet Ill be up all night
Still cleaning this gunWell, now that Im a father
Im scared to death one day my daughter
Is gonna find that teenage boy I used to be

That seems to have just one thing on his mindShes growin' up so fast
It won't be long before
Yeah, Ill have to put the fear of God
Into some kid at the doorYeah, come on in boy, sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter, do you now?
Yeah, we think she's something elseShe's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
Thats what she'll get, now ain't it son?Now yall go out and have some fun
And I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Still cleaning this gunNow it's all for show
Aint nobody gonna get hurt
Its just a daddy thing
And hey, believe me, man, it worksCome on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter, do you now?
Yeah, we think she's something elseShe's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
Thats what she'll get, ain't it son?Now yall run along and have a little fun
And I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Still cleaning this gunSon, now y'all buckle up
And have her back by 10:00, uh
Let's say about 9:30
Drive safe

Rodney Atkins, born March 28, 1969 in Knoxville, Tennessee, is an American country singer. He was an adopted child. As an infant at the Holston Methodist Home for Children in Greeneville, Tennessee, he was so sick that two couples who had taken him home returned him just a few days later. A third couple from Cumberland Gap, Tennessee, adopted him as well and, even though his ailments worsened, refused to give him up. His adoptive mother had been raised in a coal mining family near a tannery camp, and his dad survived an upbringing marked by poverty and episodes of abuse. Rodney is married and has a 4-year-old son named Elijah, who is featured in the video for Rodney's song "Watching You". While his career had a bit of a slow start, he subsequently achieved success with his first #1 hit (If You're Going Through Hell) and the fast climbing follow-up single (Watching You).

Songfacts.com reports that he lead-off single from Rodney Atkins' fourth album, titled Take A Back Road, finds the singer looking to leave the stress of the city. It was released on April 26, 2011.
