Lately things are on my mind Good news is hard to find And I work on the factory line And all I do is stay behind Call my mama like I should She says daddy ain’t doing too good Me and him should wet a line I just can’t seem to find the time But I love my life man it’s something to see It’s the kids and the dogs and you and me It’s the way it’s alright when everything goes wrong It’s the sound of a slow simple song I finally saved some money up 'Til I had to fix my truck Talked to brother the other day He didn’t have too much to say Tryin’ to quit these cigarettes I can’t seem to kick them yet Sister got laid off last fall And I got high cholesterol But I love my life man it’s something to see It’s the kids and the dogs and you and me It’s the way it’s alright when everything goes wrong It’s the sound of a slow simple song Yeah, I love my life man it’s something to see It’s the kids and the dogs and you and me It’s the way it’s alright when everything goes wrong It’s the sound of a slow simple song
