Life Ain't Long Enough

(album: Guitar For Sale - 2017)

I could sit around and wait on you to love me too
But I ain't going hold my breath
This dead horse, mine and yours
Ain't waking up, so take another step

So I'll go home and be the one to change my residence
Find a way to love that makes sense

'Cause life ain't long enough and there ain't no need in putting up
With something that's just dragging me through hell
Time's like a pot of gold and I don't plan on growing old
Wish I'd have a purse when it came to sharing
Life ain't long enough

I coulda kept that crappy job that had
Me coming home and cussing every day
Now I'd told the boss where he could get off
And I'd stuck my middle finger in his face

There comes a time when the prize ain't worth the fight
Moving on is all that feels right

Yeah life ain't long enough and there ain't no need in putting up
With something that's just dragging me through hell
Time's like a pot of gold and I don't plan on growing old
Wish I'd have a purse when it came to sharing
Life ain't long enough

Right now I'm 40 something
With 50 something just around the bend
I've lived enough to have done some stuff
I'd classify as pissing in the wind
I let some good years pass me by
Before I grabbed this horse and held it by the reins
Yeah, but when it's said and done I won't be one
Just sitting round regretting anything, oh no

Life ain't long enough and there ain't no need in putting up
With something that's just dragging you through hell
Time's just like a pot of gold and there ain't no way I'm gonna grow old
Wish I'd have a purse when it came to sharing
I ain't got no time for the petty stuff, life ain't long enough
No life ain't long enough
