Dan Rutty - It's About Time Lyrics

It's a half past five on a weekday night
I'm sitting in traffic on 75
Itchin' to get home and kick of my boots

I've got a Taylor Swift song stuck in my head
It's stop and go and I'm bored to death
I need to switch things up, before I lose my mind
I think it's about time

Time to go with some old-school Johnny Cash
Find an open lane and step on the gas
And don't look back until I leave the city behind

I think I'll meet up with some old friends tonight
Toss back some beers by an open fire
And reminisce about days gone by
Cause it's about time
It's about time

I've had to work hard for everything I've got
And the bills, they just keep pilin' up
I've got nothin' to show, but some aches and pains

Been savin' up my vacation days
And bankin' on a little extra pay
For me and my girl, to go find some sunshine
Cause it's about time...

Time to wake up to a warm ocean breeze
Find a cool spot on a private beach
And sip on an ice cold margarita

And the only deadline that I'll have to meet
Is happy hour by the pool at three
After that, I'll leave it up to the night
Cause' it's about time

It's been a year now since my dog passed on
And I can't bring myself to get another one
But I'm startin' to think, that it's about time

I should probably give my mom a call
And get up with some people I love
And get back to, the best things in life

I wanna stake my claim on a piece of land
Somewhere in the mountains
And build somethin' that I can call home

I want to spend more time alone with God
Playin' guitar and writing songs that
All my friends can sing along with

I think I'll pull out some old photos of me
To remember who I used to be
The reckless kid with courageous dreams

I need to find a way to make ends meet
That doesn't take everyday of the week
And get back to, the best things in life
Cause' it's about time
