I was taught when in trouble all you got to do is pray
And you can't get to heaven if you never been saved
I used to listen to the Rev each and every Sunday
Then I curse like the Devil at a NASCAR race
I learned there ain't nothing wrong with takin' sips of the whiskey
But you got to know the difference between tipsy and shitty
And never let a stranger see your soft side
And never let a youngin' need a tanned hide
It's my country roadside say
Label me something like a good renegade
Work hard, play hard, do what you say
And you'll always have it made in the shade

I'm staring out the window
Watching the world just pass me by
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But this how I want to live my life
I'm staring out the window
Watching the world just pass me by
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But this how I want to live my life
My life, my life, my life
'Cause it's my life, my life, my life
Can't nobody tell me what to do

Gettin' up and movin' on
A hundred more miles till we get back home
Waiting around, watchin' that old clock
It's quittin time now it's really time to rock
I grab the microphone, I rap until the lights go on
I hit the stage, I turn the page, it's beating like a xylophone
Right or wrong, baby I know I can write a song
Callin' record companies, leave a message at the dial tone
Hey oh, hey oh, it's the country boy way
Just watch them Lac boys blow up in y'all face
They go, they go, they go to shows in every state
Sellin' out crowds, livin' life this way, hey

I'm staring out the window
Watching the world just pass me by
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But this how I want to live my life
I'm staring out the window
Watching the world just pass me by
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But this how I want to live my life
My life, my life, my life
'Cause it's my life, my life, my life
Can't nobody tell me what to do

I'm staring off my front porch
Watching the world while I sip my shine
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But I guess it worked out somehow
I'm staring off my front porch
Watching the world while I sip my shine
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But I guess it worked out somehow
I know I could have did a lot of things different
But this how I want to live my life
My life, my life, my life
'Cause it's my life, my life, my life
