Brother Earl and The Cousins - Gonna Live Another Day

Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
Gonna live another... gonna live another
Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
I'm gonna live another day

When you get to may age your hands start shakin'
Memory starts slipping... Bones get to achin'
Doctor said I probably otta' cut back on the bacon if I wanna live another day
But I laughed and said my Grandpappy smoked his whole life
Drank on ocean full'a whiskey... even married seven times
Ninety-Four years later finally left to meet his maker
Dear Lordy that's a whole lotta days

Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
Gonna live another... gonna live another
Oh, my my. Oh, dear Lord
I'm gonna live another day

Well I know I got some habits that I probably otta' quite
Ain't cause I'm afraid that their gonna do me in
More the fact of livin' longer that I ever thought
Better plan for a few more days
Cause I was told it'd be a miracle if I could stay alive
Long enough to buy myself a car and take it for a drive
But now I been here forty years and wonder why the hell
The Lordy kept me livin' all these days

Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
Gonna live another... gonna live another
Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
I'm gonna live another day

Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
Gonna live another... gonna live another
Oh, my my. Oh, Dear Lord
I'm gonna live another day
