"Life is lived forward, but understood backward. It is not until we are down the road and we stand on the mountain looking back through the valley that we can appreciate the terrain God has allowed us to scale.” Jill Savage

Lyrics for Song: Lucky Man
Lyrics for Album: Some People Change

I have days where I hate my job,
this little town and the whole world too
and last Sunday when the Bengals lost...
lord it put me in a bad mood

I have moments when I curse the rain
then complain when the suns too hot,
I look around at what everyone has
and I forget about all I've got

[chorus]
but I know I'm a lucky man
gods given me a pretty fair hand,
got a house and piece of land,
a few dollars in a coffee can,
my old trucks still runnin good,
my tickers tickin like they say it should,
I've got supper in the oven
a good woman's lovin
and one more day to be my little kids dad,
lord knows I'm a lucky man
got some friends that would be here fast,
I could call em any time of day,
got a brother who's got my back,
got a momma who I swears a saint,
got a brand new rod and reel,
got a full week off this year,
dad had a close call last spring
it's a miracle he's still here

[chorus]
my old trucks still runnin good,
my tickers tickin like they say it should,
I got supper in the oven,
a good woman's lovin,
and even my bad days ain't that bad...
yeah I'm a lucky man
I'm a lucky lucky man
Just something to think about to cheer us up today. I'm supposed to pick up a friend at the airport tonight at 10:15pm! and it might snow or ice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing like Georgia and ice and driving - trust me - it's wild.
Love,
Chatty
