The Journey Of Your Life

LETRA

The Journey Of Your Life

He was old-school in overalls
Tough as nails as I recall
Fought a war and came back home
Honest as the day was long
Right before my grandpa died
He looked me right straight in the eye
Said, "Here's some words to get you by
To help you on the journey of your life."

You'll need a hero and a good dog
Especially a good dog
A hammer and a handsaw
A band-aid now and then
You'll need a home to come home to
Son, we all need a refuge
And on the straight and narrow path
You'll need to learn to bend
You'll need a good square, keep it level
And grace to face the Devil
You'll need an angel flyin' by your side on
The journey of your life

Ride the wind 'til we meet again
On the other side of life

You'll need some good luck and a Bible
Especially a Bible
A lot of faith in God above
And a woman you can love
You'll need a good song you can sing on
And a shoulder you can lean on
You'll have to draw a line sometimes
When push comes to shove
You need to lose some to be a winner
Have courage to surrender
You'll need to laugh a lot and keep it light
On the journey of your life

And no matter what dreams you're chasin'
Never get above your raisin'
May the simple things be amazing
On the journey of your life
I'll be the angel flyin' by your side
On the journey of your life
