From the recording Let Freedom Ring
Lyrics
How’ Bout We Give Livin’ A Try
Some boundaries they just don’t apply to free spirits like you and I
So no more pretending and no more defending to the old life I’m saying “goodbye”
Some dreams they wither and die but I’ve got one that still survives
But there’s no mistakin’ this music I’m makin’ I don’t count on to keep us alive
My burdens you helped me to shoulder
Some things improve as they get older
Like this whiskey I’m drinkin’
Which gets me to thinkin’
How ‘bout we give livin’ a try
I keep my boots on the ground so it’s not far if I get knocked down
But with a bit of a grin I’ll get up again just a bump in the road that I found
This could be one hell of a ride if I fall at least know that I tried
I’m gonna’ jump in the skillet my glass time to fill it not time to let it run dry
My burdens you helped me to shoulder
Some things improve as they get older
Like this whiskey I’m drinkin’
Which gets me to thinkin’
How ‘bout we give livin’ a try
Yea my burdens you helped me to shoulder
Some things improve as they get older
Like this whiskey I’m drinkin’
Which gets me to thinkin’
How ‘bout we give livin’ a try
Let’s keep one eye on the horizon where this road goes it might be surprisin’
So if you want to believe just follow my lead for some dreams we’ve got to keep fightin’
Yea we’ve got a bucket of reasons our future is one to believe in
So let’s live for today let’s get carried away let’s take a deep breath and jump in
My burdens you helped me to shoulder
Some things improve as they get older
Like this whiskey I’m drinkin’
Which gets me to thinkin’
How ‘bout we give livin’ a try
How ‘bout we give livin’ a try
