Standing Room Only

(album: Standing Room Only - 2023)

I get so mad at things that don't matter way too much
I let the way back when's and my old friends scatter like they were dust
I get to chasing that rainbow pot of gold right into the pouring rain
With nothing to show for it, standing there soaking wet
Looking up shaking my fist as the thunder rolls
Now and then on nights like this I catch a thunderbolt

I wanna live a life, live a life
Like a dollar and the clock on the wall don't own me
Shine a light, shine a light
Like mama's front porch when I'm lost and lonely
Start forgiving and start forgetting
Be somebody that's worth remembering
Live a life so when I die
There's standing room only, standing room only
Standing room only, standing room only

I wanna take my grudges and my old regrets, and let 'em go
I wanna learn how to say a lot more yes and a lot less no
Girl, I wanna dance and shout and love out loud, and come alive
Don't wanna be the guy too cool to laugh and too scared to cry

I wanna live a life, live a life
Like a dollar and the clock on the wall don't own me
Shine a light, shine a light
Like mama's front porch when I'm lost and lonely
Start forgiving and start forgetting
Be somebody that's worth remembering
Live a life so when I die
There's standing room only, standing room only

Stop judging my life by my possessions
Start thinking 'bout how many headlights will be in my procession

I wanna live a life, live a life
Like a dollar and the clock on the wall don't own me
Shine a light, shine a light
Like mama's front porch when I'm lost and lonely
Start forgiving and start forgetting
Be somebody that's worth remembering
Live a life so when I die
There's standing room only, standing room only
Standing room only, standing room only
Standing room only, standing room only
Standing room only, standing room only
