Lyrics

I'm not one to whine or cry
Or wallow in self-pity
I take life in stride
Smell the roses when I can

I am one of those lucky guys
Who's happy just to be here
Doin' what I love
Thankful that I am
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

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'
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

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
