Wise Words
Back in kindergarten they asked me what I wanted to be
I said I wanna be just like my daddy, he means the world to me
We'll go camping all the time, lots of fishing too
Just me him and momma
And maybe our dog too
But time goes by, things don't stay the same
I have two siblings now and one more on the way
Couple years later I think I found my true love
I'm ready to grow up and move away
My old man pulls me aside to give me some advice
Here's what he said
I'll never forget
Gotta slow things down
Do things right
Take your time
Times not on our side
Hold on tight to the little things
Your life's a gift
And it's the only one you'll get
Live and learn
Just don't quit
Before you know it you will blink
And your life will be
But a memory
They say life's a race he said its a journey
There's no need to be in a hurry
Let things pan out don't force your hand
Understand you're just a man
Love the Lord with all your heart
Know home is where your loved ones are
Gotta slow things down
Do things right
Take your time
Times not on our side
Hold on tight to the little things
Your life's a gift
And it's only one you'll get
Live and learn
Just don't quit
Before you know it you will blink
And your life will be
Gotta slow things down
Do things right
Take your time
Times not on our side
Hold on tight to the little things
Your life's a gift
And it's only one you'll get
Live and learn
Just don't quit
Before you know it you will blink
And your life will be
But a memory
