Things to Live By (Cases'Creed) |
Lyrics[Verse 1]I was just a kid when I said hey grandpa what makes this world go round He said you get up in the morning go like the dickens until the sun goes down Be good to yourself and everyone else and no laziness allowed 'Cause at the end of the day you'll want to say that you gave more than what you took out [Verse 2] Well I wasn't so sure so I went to my daddy said what makes this world go round He said you get up in the morning kiss your woman then you pull your work boots on Love them kids go like the dickens and give life all you've got And at the end of the day you bow your head and thank the good Lord that you're still around [Chorus] These are things to live by Things to make you proud That's what I remember when I need to put my feet on solid ground [Verse 3] Well that was years ago granddaddy's gone this is a different place and time And I've made my living not by the sweat of my brow but with my mind Yet no matter where I go or what I do I still hear that sweet voice say You gotta give it your best go like the dickens and yeah girl don't forget to pray [Chorus] These are things to live by Things to make you proud That's what I remember when I need to put my feet on solid ground [Bridge] And grandpa lived his life in his faded overalls And daddy lived his life a cut from the same cloth And I just want to live out what they taught So what was passed on to me I need to keep passing on that [Chorus] 'Cause these are things to live by Things to make you proud That's what I remember when I need to put my feet on solid ground [Outro] I was just a kid when I said hey grandpa what makes this world go round |
