One Time Around - Live

I can hear my father talking, like it was only yesterday
I believe I do remember, every single word that he said
"Don't let them do to you, like they tried to do to me
Don't let anybody tell you, there ain't nothing you can't be"

Because I'll tell you right now
You only got one time around

My mother used to tell me, when I start to feeling low, so low
'Fore you start to feeling sorry, there is something you should know
That a quitter never wins, and a winner never quit
You got to keep on pushing, try your best to stick with it

Because I'll tell you right now
You only got one time around

If anyone should ask me what I think they have to do
I say what works good for me, might not work at all for you
So go ahead and live your life, there will be some time that's right
When those problems come around, don't you let them get you down

Because I'm telling you right now
You only got one time around

You better make it alright, make it alright, son
Make it alright, make it alright
'Cause I'm alright, I'm alright now
'Cause you're alright, 'cause I'm alright
Early in the morning, I'm alright
Late in the midnight hour, I'm alright

Yeah, yeah
Said I'm alright
Said you're alright
Yeah, you're alright
