livin part of life

Eric Church

I woke up early this mornin',
An' I'm already runnin' late.
There's a list of things long as my arm,
I wanna get done today.
Is it Tuesday? Is it Wednesday?
They're runnin' into each other.
Somebody tell me, when is my day?
Man, this life is sure bein' a mother.

So tomorrow, I'm takin' me fishin'.
Hang a sign on the door of my life.
Tell the world that I've gone missin',
An' I won't be back for a while.
I'm so tired of only wishin',
I could leave my trouble behind.
I wanna be front-porch rockin',
With a big sun droppin' in a blue sky:
Kick back an' get high,
On the livin' part of life.

(Yeah, c'mon.)

They say to keep your spot on the ladder,
An' keep that money rollin' in:
They say keepin' up with the feelies, boy,
You can't back off one inch.
But I been puttin' in my time,
An' I've built up a pretty good deal.
I'm gonna spend some, maybe waste some,
Before my time comes an' I wind up dead.

Yeah, tomorrow, I'm takin' me fishin'.
Hang a sign on the door of my life.
Tell the world that I've gone missin',
An' I won't be back for a while.
I'm so tired of only wishin',
I could leave my trouble behind.
I wanna be front-porch rockin',
With a big sun droppin' in a blue sky:
Kick back an' get high,
On the livin' part of life.

:. Instrumental Break .:
(Yeah.)

When I get home tonight,
I'll open the window an' let whatever roll in.
An' if there's no breeze, that's cool with me,
I'll just raise myself, an' wait on the wind, yeah.

Yeah, tomorrow, I'm takin' me fishin'.
Hang a sign on the door of my life.
Tell the world that I've gone missin',
An' I won't be back for a while.
I'm so tired of only wishin',
I could leave my trouble behind.
I wanna be front-porch rockin',
With a big sun droppin' in a blue sky:
Kick back an' get high;
Kick back an' get high,
On the livin' part of life.

Yeah, bop, bop.
Bop, bop, bop,bop.
Yeah.
