Verse 1:
I grew up workin' real hard
Got my toughness on the farm
Was my life when I was young
Made me what I've become__
When grandma died, I didn't cry
Just held ma's hand real tight
Was there when my sis’ divorced
Learned family can't be ignored
Chorus:
The worst in life brings out the best in me
Don't trust things that come too easily
I take it slow ‘cause I know
Just how lightnin’ fast time goes
Ain’t too much that I really need
A little luck – - - some room to brea--the
What you get -- is what- you – see
____ No mys-ter-y
Verse 2:
Never looked before I’d leap
Never thought about where I’d land
Reckless, wild, and straight
Down a crooked path I ran
Now, I try to keep things sim-----ple
Learn when to push – when to pull
So if your back’s feelin’ a wall
N’ you need some help, just call
Bridge: I go out to the fishin' hole
Just me, a six pack, and a pole
Spend hours -- castin' my line
Troll to see what's in my mind
Somedays even get a bite
Feels so good to feel alive
