Life Part Of Livin'

(Album: I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell - 2023)

I've had a lot of good years I missed as they rolled on by
Now, here I am, just a kid going on 35
I've played my songs and played my part
Played it wrong and played some hearts
Lived the highs and lows, in-betweens of this thing called life

I learned college ain't near long enough
And Natty Light's the good stuff
Learned to find a damn good dog and a damn good girl
I learned losing Dad can make ya pretty tough
Becoming one makes you grow on up
And the color pink and curls can rock a grown man's world
I learned Sunday morning ain't the only time for forgiving
And love's where you find the life part of living

Y'all, a six string and some words is worth the time
When you can't find an empty seat, and lighters fill the night
And call your mama, call your friends
Make some new ones, make amends
And when the tears build up, just let 'em fly

I learned college ain't near long enough
And Natty Light's the good stuff
I learned to find a damn good dog and a damn good girl
I learned losing Dad can make ya pretty tough
Becoming one makes you grow on up
And the color pink and curls can rock a grown man's world
I learned Sunday morning ain't the only time for forgiving
And love's where you find the life part of living

When the Lord smiles, just take it in
When the Devil swings, take it on the chin
When the going gets tough hit your knees
When you got a song to sing, sing

I learned college ain't near long enough
And Natty Light's the good stuff
Learned to find a damn good dog and a damn good girl
I learned losing Dad can make ya pretty tough
Becoming one makes you grow on up
And the color pink and curls can rock a grown man's world
I learned Sunday morning ain't the only time for forgiving
And love's where you find the life part of living
