erik dylan - the good life lyrics
[verse 1]
i go to work, 6am, like every day since i’ve been outta high school i was so cool, never went to college but i ain’t no d-mn fool
played football, all-state, then mary ann got a little too late
i bought a ring, p-wn shop diamond, daddy was p-ssed, her mama was cryin’
[chorus]
guys like me, run a hundred and fifty percent
guys like me, would rather wreck it than make a dent
guys like me, will keep searchin’ for that truth
yeah we sip a little 90 proof, like we got nothin’ left to lose
but we do, and that’s how you get by when the good life’s k!llin’ you
[verse 2]
i’m a tee-ball coach and i’m a good dad, couple bad dreams from iraq
i clock in, i clock out, and i try to make a livin’ in a three year drought
i go to church in a new used ford, bow my head and thank the lord
for three day jeans and lowball cards, ’cause life ain’t livin’ if it ain’t hard
[chorus]
guys like me, run a hundred and fifty percent
guys like me, would rather wreck it than make a dent
guys like me, will keep searchin’ for that truth
yeah we sip a little 90 proof, like we got nothin’ left to lose
but we do, and that’s how you get by when the good life’s k!llin’ you
[verse 3]
k!llin’ you, fillin’ you with bad news
but you do what you gotta do
like your daddy did
and his dad for his kid
[bridge]
guys like me, yeah you know we’re gonna make the rent
guys like me, we’re gonna break before we bend
[chorus]
guys like me, run a hundred and fifty percent
guys like me, would rather wreck it than make a dent
guys like me, will keep searchin’ for that truth
yeah we sip a little 90 proof, like we got nothin’ left to lose
but we do, and that’s how you get by when the good life’s k!llin’ you
