Lyrics On This Side of Life - Aaron Tippin

On This Side of Life

One thing is for certain
Nothing is for certain
And learnin' that has certainly served me well
And that old devil on my shoulder
He’s gettin' a whole lot older
And we’re both too damn tired for raisin' hell
I used to wake up every mornin'
Just lookin' for a fight
But now I wake up every mornin'
Just glad to be alive
On this side of life
I don’t worry 'bout much
'Cause I know what’s waitin' up ahead
And there’s no need to rush
On this side of life
I make sure I make time
For the mighty lord, my family
And a good bottle of wine
Back in my younger days
I’d’ve got right up in your face
If you flipped me off, or just rubbed me the wrong way
Yeah I’d give you a real good cussin'
Usually over nothin'
But today, I just ain’t got the time to waste
Because the things in life worth fightin' for
I can count 'em on one hand
But now all I wanna do is hold 'em close
And never fight again
On this side of life
I don’t worry 'bout much
'Cause I know what’s waitin' up ahead
And there’s no need to rush
On this side of life
I make sure I make time
For the mighty lord, my family
And a good bottle of wine
On this side of life
I don’t worry 'bout much
'Cause I know what’s waitin' up ahead
And there’s no need to rush
On this side of life
I make sure I make time
For the mighty lord, my family
And a good bottle of wine
Yeah, the mighty lord, my family
And a good bottle of wine
