You can only cut it once so measure twice
When you shake a hand, look em in their eyes
Everything comes back around
So leave it better than you found it
And never be too proud to take advice
When you got time to give
Go ahead and give it
When the good Lord throws a curve
Just try your best to hit it
As fast as you can blink your eye
These days are gonna pass you by
So if I could tell you one thing bout this life
Don't forget to live it
Try to call your mom least once a week
Don't confuse the want for what you need
Keep your nose in the good book
And be careful where you look
As you figure out just who you're gonna be
When you got time to give
Go ahead and give it
When the good Lord throws a curve
Just try your best to hit it
As fast as you can blink your eye
These days are gonna pass you by
So if I could tell you one thing bout this life
Don't forget to live it
Don't forget to live it
There's always plenty more that I could tell
And plenty more I'm trying to figure out myself
But we only get one ride
A bunch of lows, a bunch of highs
So here's somewhere to start to do it well
When you got time to give
Go ahead and give it
When the good Lord throws a curve
Just try your best to hit it
As fast as you can blink your eye
These days are gonna pass you by
So if I could tell you one thing bout this life
Don't forget to live it
