Livin' Man (Gold Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Bettie James - 2020)

Old cracks on the window seal
On the house where I was raised
I remember that big wheel down a dirt driveway
Mama said don't go too far but mama I'm okay
That was living' man

Tracks on a snow-covered hill it was cold out that day
Cardboard on a trash lid was the sleigh for the race
But we were happy with what we had, but what else can I say
That was living' man, oh yeah

Yeah, that's living man
When it's all you know
Ain't that living man
When you see that open road
And you leave it all behind you
Just to see how far it goes
Yeah that's living' man

Grandpa in a fold out chair smoking' in the shade
Laid off from the factory and all the bills are late, yeah
He got the wrong end of the deal (But he knew it'd be okay)
That's just living' man

That's just living man
When it's all you know
Ain't that living man
When you see that open road
And you leave it all behind you
Just to see how far it goes
Yeah that's living' man

Holding your own kids for the first time
Then you smile
And all the lessons that you learned
Were worth it all the while
Yeah, that's living' man
Oh yeah

Yeah, that's living man
When it's all you know
Ain't that living man
When you see that open road
And you leave it all behind you
Just to see how far it goes
Yeah that's living' man

Yeah, that's living' man (Everything will be okay, everything will be okay)
Oh yeah, that's living' man (Everything will be okay, everything will be okay)
Whoo oh yeah, that's living' man (Everything will be okay, everything will be okay)
Yeah, that's living' man
