The Life |
| It was early one mornin' |
| Playa del Carmen |
| That’s when I first met Jose |
| He had a 12 foot Schooner |
| A 3 foot cooler |
| Full of the catch of the day |
| And he was wrinkled from grinnin' |
| From all of the sun he had been in He was barefoot, cerveza in hand |
| He said??? |
| Gracias senor???, when I paid him too much for |
| All of the Snapper he had |
| Now I told him my friend it ain’t nothin' |
| In the best broken Spanish I knew |
| I said I make a good livin' |
| Back home where I’m from |
| He smiled and said Amigo me too |
| He said I fish and I play my guitar |
| I laugh at the bar with my friends |
| I go home to my wife |
| I pray every night |
| I can do it all over again |
| Somewhere over Texas |
| I thought of my Lexus |
| And all the stuff I work so hard for |
| And all the things that I’ve gathered |
| From climbing that ladder |
| Didn’t make much sense anymore |
| They say my nest egg ain’t ready to hatch yet |
| They keep holding my feet to the fire |
| They call it paying the price |
| So that one day in life |
| I’ll have what I need to retire |
| And just fish |
| And play my guitar |
| And laugh at the bar with my friends |
| And go home to my wife |
| And pray every night |
| I can do it all over again |
| And to think that I thought for a while there that I had it made |
| When the truth is I’m really just dying |
| To live like Jose |
| And just fish |
| Play my guitar |
| Laugh at the bar with my friends |
| Go home to my wife |
| Pray every night |
| I can do it all over again |
| Wouldn’t that be the life? |
