Sounds Like Life...

Got a call last night from an old friends wife, said, I hate to bother you
But Johnny Ray fell off the wagon, he'd been gone all afternoon
Well, I know my buddy, so I drove to Scullys and found him at the bar
Said, Hey Man, whats goin on, He said, I don't know where to start

Sarah's old car startin to fall apart and the washer quit last week
We had to put Mama in the nursing home and the baby's cuttin teeth
I didnt get much work this week and I got bills to pay
I said, I know this ain't what you wanna hear but its what I'm gonna say

Sounds like life to me, it ain't no fantasy
It just a common case of everyday reality
Man, I know its tough but you gotta suck it up
To hear you talk you're caught up in some tragedy
It sounds like life to me

Well, his face turned red and he shook his head
He said, you don't understand, three kids and a wife depend on me
And I'm just one man, top it off we just found out that Sarah's two months late
I said, Hey, bartender, set us up a round, we gotta celebrate

Sounds like life to me, ain't no destiny
Yeah, the only thing for certain is uncertainty
You gotta hold on tight, just enjoy the ride
Get used to all this unpredictability, sounds like life

Man, I know its tough but you gotta suck it up
To hear you talk you're caught up in some tragedy
Sounds like life to me (sounds like life to me)
Sounds like life

There is so much life going on in my life... and I think that's all there is to say right now.
It's just life. It's just life.
