V1:
I had to of been about ten when my granddad took me fishin
2 hours on the lake we had nothing to show

It was then that he turned around, sat his fishing pole down and said
Should I stay or should I go
I was 17 at a high school party, this little voice kept saying just say no

But there were girls there and they had to many, they asked me if I wanted any
Should I stay or should I go


Chorus:
If I stay then I'd get to see the way it would end up to be
If I go maybe I'll know. Time just might show

Should I stay or should I go. Should I stay or should I go

V2:

I remember getting married, having babies and working like crazy
Different directions we would go
But right now I'm sittin on a bar stool contemplating leaving you

Should I stay or should I go

Bridge:

Maybe one day I'll get to see all my mistakes turn into good memories

End:

Should I stay or should I go
I just talked to you on the phone and you said you didn't care if I ever came home
I need to know

Should I stay or should I go
