Life's Too Short

The preacher said some words
And we all gathered 'round
We threw handfuls of dirt
As they laid him in the ground
But on his dying day
He handed me a note
Said read this when I'm gone
And this is what he wrote

Have a cold beer with your hot wings
And a good time with your friends
Take that drive down to Daytona
'Cause who knows when you'll get to go again
Hold her close and love her right
Show her what forever's for
Take a little time, send a prayer up to the good Lord
P.S. life's too short to drive a Ford

So, I sold my F-150
Parked a Silverado in the drive
Drove that truck down to Hooters
Poured a few rounds with the guys
And last night I told my wife I love her long as I'm alive
We all thought he was crazy
But God knows he was right when he said

Have a cold beer with your hot wings
And a good time with your friends
Take that drive down to Daytona
'Cause who knows when you'll get to go again
Hold her close and love her right
Show her what forever's for
Take a little time, send a prayer up to the good Lord
P.S. life's too short to drive a Ford

Pictures last longer
Chevy's built stronger
You only live one time
Yeah, those final words hit me
So, I'm gonna live until I die

Have cold beer with my hot wings
And a good time with my friends
Take that drive down to Daytona
'Cause who knows when I'll get to go again
Hold her close and love her right
Show her what forever's for
Take a little time, send a prayer up to the good Lord
And remember life's too short to drive a Ford
