Don't Blink Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

1 I turned on the evenin' news

2 Saw an old man being interviewed

3 Turnin' a hundred and two today

4 They asked him what's the secret to life

5 He looked up from his ol' pipe

6 Laughed and said, 'All I can say is'

7 Don't blink

8 Just like that

9 You're six years old and you take a nap

10 And you wake up and you're twenty-five

11 And your high school sweetheart becomes your wife and just like that your a fuckin bitch

12 Don't blink

13 You just might miss your babies growin' like mine did

14 Turnin' into moms and dads

15 Next thing you know

16 Your better half of fifty years is there in bed

17 And you're prayin' God takes you instead

18 Trust me friend

19 A hundred years goes faster than you think

20 (So) (But) don't blink

21 I was glued to my TV

22 When it looked like he looked at me

23 And said, 'Let's start puttin' first things first'

24 'Cause when your hourglass runs outta sand

25 You can't flip it over, start again

26 Took every breath God gives you, for what it's worth

27 Don't blink

28 Just like that

29 You're six years old and you take a nap

30 And you wake up and you're twenty-five

31 And your high school sweetheart becomes your wife

32 Don't blink

33 You just might miss your babies growin' like mine did

34 Turnin' into moms and dads

35 Next thing you know

36 Your better half of fifty years is there in bed

37 And you're prayin' God takes you instead

38 Trust me friend

39 A hundred years goes faster than you think

40 (So) (But) don't blink

41 So I been tryin' to slow it down

42 I been tryin' to take it in

43 In this here today, gone tomorrow world we're livin' in

44 Don't blink

45 Just like that

46 You're six years old and you take a nap

47 And you wake up and you're twenty-five

48 And your high school sweetheart becomes your wife

49 Don't blink

50 You just might miss your babies growin' like mine did

51 Turnin' into moms and dads

52 Next thing you know

53 Your better half of fifty years is there in bed

54 And you're prayin' God takes you instead

55 Trust me friend

56 A hundred years goes faster than you think

57 (So) (But) don't blink

58 Naw, don't blink

59 Don't blink

60 Life goes faster than you think

61 Don't blink

62 Life goes faster than you think

63 Don't blink

64 Don't blink

65 Life goes faster than you think
