Letra “Drew Baldridge – First” Official Lyrics
Verse 1
You are the first girl I ever let try to drive my truck
First fall I didn’t care at all about a bug
‘Cause I was spending all my time trying
Just to get you to be mine
You were the first girl to make this boy wanna settle down
First time in my life I ever thought about
Getting out of the fast lane and putting
Someone’s first with my last name and I
Made a promise to your daddy
I’d always put you first
But there’s just one time I really hope that I
Don’t have to keep my word
Chorus
When that hourglass runs out of sand
And the good Lord calls us home
When this needle runs out of record
And these tires run out of road
There’s gonna come a day not soon I pray
That one of us has gotta go
And girl without you here with me it’d be hell on Earth
So I hope Heaven takes me first
Verse 2
I’d be first smile to greet you right there at the gate
First one to show you all around the place
Hope it don’t sound selfish
That I wanna beat you there
‘Cause if you went first I couldn’t handle the hurt I swear
Chorus
When that hourglass runs out of sand
And the good Lord calls us home
When this needle runs out of record
And these tires run out of road
There’s gonna come a day not soon I pray
That one of us has gotta go
And girl without you here with me it’d be hell on Earth
So I hope Heaven takes me first
Bridge
Girl I promise for as long as I can
I’ll always put you first
But there’s just one time I really hope that I
Don’t have to keep my word
Chorus
When that hourglass runs out of sand
And the good Lord calls us home
When this needle runs out of record
And these tires run out of road
There’s gonna come a day not soon I pray
That one of us has gotta go
And girl without you here with me it’d be hell on Earth
So I hope Heaven takes me first
Yeah Heaven takes me first
Take me first
