She was starin' out the window of their SUV
Complainin', sayin', ?I can't wait to turn eighteen?
She said, ?I'll make my own money and I'll make my own rules
Momma, put the car in park out there in front of the school?
And she kissed her head, and said, ?I was just like you?

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days
Hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this

Before she knows it she's a brand new bride
In her one bedroom apartment and her daddy stops by
He tells her it's a nice place, she says, ?It'll do for now?
Starts talkin' about babies and buyin' a house
Daddy shakes his head and says, ?Baby, just slow down?

Cuz' you're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days
Hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this

Five years later there's a plumber
Workin' on the water heater
Dog's barkin', phone's ringin'
One kid's cryin' and one kid's screamin'
And she keeps apologizin'

He says, ?They don't bother me
I've got two babies of my own
One's thirty-six, one's twenty-three?
Huh, it's hard to believe

But you're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days
Hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this

You're gonna miss this
Yeah, you're gonna miss this

    This song does speak the thruth. I am a junior and i was always wanting school to end and then last yr me and my friend was talkin about how we would miss school. I am taking everyday of my days of school now serious because one day i wont have the chance. i look back and remember the good times and how much fun i have had. these really r the good times and i wish i could stay in these yrs all my life. this song inspires me to do that. Life is here and before u know it ur 6,then 16, and then ur 18 next month is my b-day and i am going to be 18 and i not that happy i wish i could go back when i was 13.

    I love this song!

    The word in the first verse is rules, not roots.
