livin' part of life

i woke up early this mornin'

an' i'm already runnin' late

there's a list of things long as my arm

i won't get dont 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 troubles 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

they say to keep your spot on the ladder

an' keep that money rollin' in

they say keepin' up with the thiles

boy

you can't back off one inch

but i been puttin' in my time

an' i 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 troubles 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

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 my sail

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 troubles 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
