All you kids are making me smile. I'm the old man. I was 31 when Tim released this song and it inspired me because the thing I had to lose was either a radio or hangout with a jukebox to hear the song. I am glad that there were 5 to 20 year old people who appreciated Tim McGraw's height. Him and country music declined after 2007. I have been down to my last dollar since, and may just fly away, Thank you, Tim.
I love your comment I am 29 years old. I saw this man in concert. I just live day by day and live life to the fullest hard work. You don't envy what your neighbors have and just be grateful for life.
I remember when I was little and driving on the way home and singing this whole song. :) I miss when everything was okay and we didn't have to care as much as we do now.
My dad use to play this song all the time in car when we went somewhere...this song reminds me of him everytime i listen to it...and makes me cry, cuz i'll never listen to it with him again..i love u dad, thank u for bringing me up with country music. I'll always remember the great times we had singing tim mcgraw, toby keith, brookes and dunn, garth brooks..thanks for the memories ^-^
I remember this from my childhood, At night my parents had to have the radio on for me to sleep and I remember hearing this and I would sing the 1. 2. 3 like the bird I sing part it was my favorite. (16 and half yrs old) now and finally popped up in my head!!!! Take me back to childhood
Just turned 18 about 37 seconds ago and wanted this to be the first song that I heard as an adult. Its the first song I ever remember so it makes me a little emotional to end my childhood with it.
I’m 24 now, I used to sing with a childhood friend when I was young and my dad recorded it in I think it was a jeep, had a recording thing on the roof where you record and play your recording. Miss those days
Similar memories here sis. I miss him too, but how ironic we all share this as a childhood song with now absent fathers... there for the 1 2 3 stage and they gave us our wings ❤️
i used to listen to this song with my parents when i was little. as i got older i could never remember the song, only the last part with his kids. my dad spent two days just searching for it and finally found it. it's been on repeat since
I’m 22 and I haven’t heard this song since I was 9 when my parents played the CD on the radio in the car. Love this song and hope it lasts a long long time so people get to hear it.
My little brother loved this song. This month makes 9years since he died. It’s still hard to listen and not think about him. He was 6 when he died and to think he would 16 in July!! Where has the time gone?? I miss him more than anything.
Hah it was favorite since I was 6 when I met my other dad he would play this on the radio sometimes. I miss him. He has his new body now though I'm happy for him I'm sad because I miss him I'm happy for him though.
My Grandma passed away on 02-18-22. This is the song that brings me to her, she always had the radio tuned into 100.7 KOLT FM. When asked if I like country music my response is always "Only when I'm cruising with my Grandma." 💝
My dad always got me to sing this when was small he told me that i should be as good as the kid at the end, now i sing it like a boss. like if this is awesome
Ever since I was a kid my dad would turn on the radio and we would always listen to this song and this is the reason I wanted to be in choir this song helped me find my voice I love this song so much.
This song played at my Great Grandfathers funeral in 2012. This song now makes me so happy just by listening but it makes me cry sometimes. Stay Strong Guys and btw Happy Valentines Day Lovelys.
I remember singing this song when I was a kid. My mom's best friend(who's like my second mom) used to ask me to sing it and I would. She lives far away but sometimes when we see her she still asks me to sing it. Ahhh memories 😊
This song used to play every morning on the radio while my mom and I were going to her work which was my preschool, so for kids that listen to this song like i do. This song has brought me to remember the past when i was so young and when i loved school but you know life so 100,000,000/1000
Same XD I used to love this song when I was younger. I was 7 (?) when it came out. I loved listening to it driving with my aunt to my school. Now that I'm in my freshman year it's still good 😂😆
I remember listening to this song when i was younger about 5 i was going to a race with my dad. Had a hard time looking for this song finally found it after all these years
Ha, nothing but an old favorite from when I was a kid. Iused to sing this whenever it came on the radio, at home or in the car. Takes me back to the good old days. Here's one for the memories and two to Tim McGraw for being a great artist! :)
My child hood memories ❤️ So much nostalgia ❤️time flys by I was only five years old or six when I first heard this now I am 18. I’m so happy that this was in my RUclips recommendations and I got to hear it for old time sake❤️
This is my wife's fave song it reminds her off her uncle Danny , godfather Josh , best friend Parker who all passed away she still having a hard time dealing and copeing with all these losses she encounter when she was 8, 9 , and 16 she lost the people that ment every thing to her
I was 12 when this song came out. Just moved to Texas from New York. First country song I heard when I got on bus 404 to my middle school in the hill country. I missed home so much. Bunch of kids with weird accents and names like HUNTER.. Suffice to say, I got used to it.
Last time i heard this song was when i was 3-4 and it took me 11-12 years to find it. Btw im 15, im happy i found this song because him and i always jam to this song when we're on the backroads just cruising in his 1967 C20 Square body 2 ton.
Brings back the memory of singing this song at the top of my lungs when I was 5 with my grandfather as we drove to 7-11 to get slurpies. Definitely a cherished memory.
As a kid I had this little phone thing that played this song, I would constantly repeat it with my sister and we learned the song completely through, good times.
i remember listenin to this song with my pappy when i was a little girl and now it brings great memories to me everytime i hear it.....god i love this song
this is one of the country songs i hold close to my heart,when i was 7 i heard it for the first time and i was with my grandma for spring break , she was driving me from my hosue to her sand the song came came on and by the second chorus we were both singing, this is me and my grandma's song i came on a lot for the next year and a hald and we sang it every time we never hear it after that untill i curiously looked up the song after i finaly rembered the name, thanks to i tunes i cant wait to sing with my grandma again. When ever already there would play me and my grandma sang quietly it is me and my grandpas song i heard it for the first time shortly after he passed away and now i only hear the song at times in my life that seem important, and i never forget a single moment of those days, and then there's My Town, the first song i ever memorized, i sang my heart out when ever i heard that song i still do, from 3 to 15 that will always be my favorite song because its my familly song becuase no matter where we run off to we return to our root eventually, I wish country music could go back to when songs had meanings for us not todays hip hop country .
My parents are separated. So i would always fly out to Arizona where my dad lived once me and mom moved away. When we lived in Arizona my dad would always play this when i went to his house on the weekends. Now one time when he was taking me to the airport, this song was playing. We sang to it but I started to get tears in my eyes and so did my dad. He said on the 'I'm so glad your here today, cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away' isn't it similar? I miss my daddy so much...
everyone agrees , I've listened to this since I was 3 with my grandma and my grandma passed away last year so I dug this song up and listened to it a million times xX
This reminds me of my little cousin that died she was 16 months old😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢💔😞 I miss u Charla....... R.I.P God Bless You.
when i was little we lived in florida and I remember driving by the ocean and this song would come on the radio on the school bus and every kid would start singing even the driver. moved back in georgia though when I was like 12. miss those days
I sang this song with my siblings and parents every single time we were in the car without fail. It really reminds me on when things were easier and better. So much has changed since then and it's so weird listening to it now. I really miss those times
I am 15, and I used to listen to this song all the time. It hurts knowing when your with your dad, little, and now hes just layed back we barley talks.
I remember everyone talking about this song when I was in Kindergarten. Would have been 2006 or 2007. It was one of those first moments where I felt like I was in the know about what people liked because I listened to country radio in my dad's truck.
When I was little this was me and my dads song we would sing together all the time!! I’m 15 now! This is the first time I’ve heard this song in a long time! 🥺🥺
Today is my papaws 72nd birthday and nearly six years since he passed. this was our song. I miss him so much, more than I knew I could miss another persons absence. He was always there for me growing up and I will never forget him. He was my bestest friend.
This was my favorite song as a small child. This is still some good shit. Coming from someone who listened to country until I was like 12. And cringe every time I hear anything new country. But the old stuff that's the good stuff
My dad used to play this song all the time for my sister and I and it’s great to listen to it every once in a while to go back and think of some of the good times
I hadn't heard this song since i was like 5 or 6 and just recently came upon it for my graduation playlist. My papa bought me the cd and I used to listen to it on repeat.
I rarely listen to country anymore, and haven't heard this song in years, but somehow I'm constantly getting that "123 like a bird I sing..." stuck in my head lol
All you kids are making me smile. I'm the old man. I was 31 when Tim released this song and it inspired me because the thing I had to lose was either a radio or hangout with a jukebox to hear the song.

I have been down to my last dollar since, and may just fly away, Thank you, Tim.
One of my favorite songs from my childhood!
Fly away is my euphemism for not wanting to live anymore. Don't do that.
I love your comment I am 29 years old. I saw this man in concert. I just live day by day and live life to the fullest hard work. You don't envy what your neighbors have and just be grateful for life.

I wish country music would return to this type of country...not what's on today
Todays Country Music.... is called Hick Hop
Today's country is pop with a southern accent!

i actually started crying while listening to this because it reminded me of so many actually happy childhood memories, which are very few for me
I used to listen to this song when I was little. On music on demand I would watch the video and dance to it. Good times, good times. xD
The one song that brings so memories back that I wanna cry
God love this song. Brings back a lot of memories
I used to listen to this song when I was little and I love it so much!!!!!!so much memories!!!!!

I remember when I was 8 or so my mom had this song on a cd and I would beg her to put it on :) loved it that much
I rarely listen to country anymore, and haven't heard this song in years, but somehow I'm constantly getting that "123 like a bird I sing..." stuck in my head lol
