I'm not one to whine or cry or wallow in self-pity |
|
I take life in stride and smell the roses when |
|
I canI am one of those lucky guys who's happy just to be here |
|
Doin' what |
|
I love thankful that |
|
I amWith all of life's temptations and this dream that |
|
I've been chasin' |
|
It's a wonder |
|
I ain't long since dead and gone |
|
I've cheated undertakers, |
|
I've dang near met my maker |
|
I'm tellin' you all, |
|
I'm lucky to be here at all |
|
My hard head, the cigarettes and straight |
|
Kentucky bourbon |
|
Have taken their toll and done their best to do me in |
|
Guitars and beer joint bars up and down the highway |
|
If I could start all over |
|
I'd do it all again |
|
With all of life's temptations and this dream that |
|
I've been chasin' |

|

|
And when I die |
|
I'll thank the |
|
Good Lord face to face |
|
For His patience and grace |
|
With all of life's temptations and this dream that |
|
I've been chasin' |
|
It's a wonder |
|
I ain't long since dead and gone |
|
I've cheated undertakers, |
|
I've dang near met my maker |
|
I'm tellin' you all, |
|
I'm lucky to be here at all |
|
Lucky to be here at all |
