Learn To Live
Grandpa Campbell would sit upon his front porch
And I'd be right there just sitting on his knee
He'd tell stories of love, and feast, and famine
And I'd hang onto every word that he would breathe
He'd say, "Boy, as you walk through this life
Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by
You gotta live and learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
And take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live"
Well, I left home and I went to Carolina
I didn't sail off just to see what I could see
I did some things that I wasn't really proud of
Sometimes life just got the best of me
But I'd always think back to those days
And I know what grandpa Campbell would say
He'd say
You gotta live and learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
And take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live, oh, oh
After years of running 'round and searching
I found me a woman who loves me just for me
All those mistakes I thought that I was making
Led me right here to you sitting on my knee
Son as you walk through this life
Here's a little wisdom that will help you get by
You gotta live and learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
You gotta take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live
Learn to live
And I'd be right there just sitting on his knee
He'd tell stories of love, and feast, and famine
And I'd hang onto every word that he would breathe
He'd say, "Boy, as you walk through this life
Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by
You gotta live and learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
And take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live"
Well, I left home and I went to Carolina
I didn't sail off just to see what I could see
I did some things that I wasn't really proud of
Sometimes life just got the best of me
But I'd always think back to those days

He'd say
You gotta live and learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
And take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live, oh, oh

Here's a little wisdom that will help you get by

You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
You gotta take some chances
You gotta live and love
And take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
You gotta live and learn
So you can learn to live
Learn to live
