A Little Too Late

Toby Keith · White Trash with Money [2006]

It's a little too late

I'm a little too gone

A little to tired of this hangin' on

So I'm lettin' go while I'm still strong enough to



It's got a little too sad

I'm a little too blue

It's a little too bad you were too good to be true

I'm big time over you baby

It's a little too late



No I don't wanna talk about what we can do about us anymore

All the time you would be wastin'

Is the time it takes to walk right out that door

Yeah, talk about water

Under the bridge

You should know by now girl,

That's all this is



It's a little too late

I'm a little too gone

A little to tired of this hangin' on

So I'm lettin' go while I'm still strong enough to

It's got a little too sad

I'm a little too blue

It's a little too bad you were too good to be true

I'm big time over you baby

It's a little too late



There was a time this heart of mine would take you back

Everytime, don't you know

That's been two packs of cigarettes

A sleepless night a nervous wreck

A day ago

Yeah you ain't got not business comin' around

I'm closin' up shop

Shuttin' us down



It's a little too late

I'm a little too gone

A little to tired of this hangin' on

So I'm lettin' go while I'm still strong enough to

It's got a little too sad

I'm a little too blue

It's a little too bad you were too good to be true



I'm big time over you baby

It's a little too late

I'm big time over you baby

It's a little too late

A Little Too Late

A Little Too Late stands as a poignant song in Toby Keith's extensive discography, appearing on his 2006 album White Trash with Money. The track captures the artist's signature blend of traditional country storytelling with a modern, polished production style that defined his mid-career era. Thematically, the song explores the regret and timing often found in romantic relationships, a recurring motif in Keith's body of work. Released during a period where the artist was solidifying his status as a mainstream country icon, the recording reflects his ability to craft relatable narratives about love and loss. While the album itself showcased a mix of upbeat anthems and reflective ballads, this particular song offers a more introspective look at the complexities of timing in personal connections, fitting seamlessly into his broader catalogue of emotionally resonant country music.
