Once my future was shiny as the

Seat of my pants are today

Then old mother luck and all her

Daughters started duckin' me

When i finally got tired of just sittin' there

Watching my life slip away

I said i better start takin' all the living

That's a-comin' to me



Chorus:

Now i love too much, fight too much

Stay out late at night too much

But you bet your butt i'm going to

Live before i die

And i may smoke too much, drink too much

Every blessed thing too much

It's a low-down life, but it ain't gonna pass me by



I don't care if the world don't ever hear

The sound of my name

And old mother luck and all her daughters

Keep a-duckin' me

As long as that cat that i gotta look at when

I shave ain't ashamed

There ain't no jody in the world

I'd ever rather be.



Chorus:

Now i love too much, fight too much

Stay out late at night too much

But you bet your butt i'm going to

Live before i die

And i may smoke too much, drink too much

Every blessed thing too much

It's a low-down life, but it ain't gonna pass me by
