I could've been workin' overtime

Or at home tryin' to make that truck run right

Instead of wadin' out in that stream

All day long barely catchin' a thing

Just me and dad

I'm glad he talked me in to that

[1st Chorus]

It was time well wasted

And there's no way I trade a few more dollars in my pocket I could've spent

For a day I'll never forget

No, I didn't get a thing done

But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'

And I count it all as time well wasted

Those leaves were a foot deep in the yard

And 'wash me' was written all over the car

But watchin' movies all day with you

Wasn't on my list of things to do

But we laid on that couch

Girl, we never left the house

[2nd Chorus]

It was time well wasted

And there's no way I trade a few more things that I could've crossed off my list

For a day I'll never forget

No, I didn't get a thing done

But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'

And I count it all as time well wasted

[Bridge]

This world spins too fast if you let it

There's always one more thing to do

But lookin' back I never have regretted

Takin' off early or callin' in sick

Or lovin' away a Sunday afternoon

[3rd Chorus]

It was time well wasted

And there's no way I trade a few more dollars or things crossed off my list

For a day I'll never forget

No I didn't get a thing done

But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'

And I count it all as time well wasted
