Ain't got time for that stuff
Ashton Gwyn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some girls they try to act cool
They try to make you a fool
Well babe enough is enough
I ain´t got time for that stuff
They try to run you around
And drag you down the ground
Well you ain´t really tough
I ain´t got time for that stuff

So hear the words that I say
If you don´t feel the same way
Now I´m calling your bluff
I ain´t got time for that stuff

Well I ain't pickin' on you girl
I'm just to old for the game
I've seen it all before
And it all looks the same
You're sayin' nothin' new
That I ain't heard before




I'm leavin' right now
Gonna walk out that door

Overall Meaning

In Ashton Gwyn's song "Ain't Got Time For That Stuff," the singer is expressing his frustration with girls who try to play games and act cool. He recognizes their tactics of trying to make him a fool by running him around and dragging him down, but he is fed up with it all. He declares that he doesn't have the time or patience for their nonsense, and if they don't feel the same way, he's calling their bluff.


The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer simply doesn't have the energy for fake behavior or playing games with another person's emotions. He acknowledges that he's seen it all before and recognizes that no matter how different the girls may seem on the surface, their actions and intentions all boil down to the same manipulative tactics. In the end, he decides that it's not worth his time and chooses to walk away from the situation altogether.
