Chris Cagle - My Life's Been A Country Song lyrics

Now I know how Merle Haggard felt when he sang the words 'Mama tried"

And I've lived those teenage Friday Nights, "The pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight" And that summer Becky broke my heart, Alabama sang "Old flame burning"

I've danced to George Strait, drank to George Jones, my life's been a country song

It's all about falling down and getting back up

You're good times and hard luck

True love and Amazing Grace

Working all week for a backache

Raising cane, Friday nights

Sunday church to set it right

They can write it on my stone

My life's been a country song

Now I know how Paycheck felt when he told his boss to "Take this job and shove it"

And I've had the girl that made me say, "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it"

And I'll always remember just where I was "When the world stopped turning"

Through the good and the bad, the right and the wrong, my life's been a country song

It's all about falling down and getting back up

You're good times and hard luck

True love and Amazing Grace

Working all week for a backache

Raising cane, Friday nights

Sunday church to set it right

They can write it on my stone

My life's been a country song

It's been the words when I couldn't find 'em

A friend when I've been alone

It's been a toast to the things remembered

The strength for movin on

It's all about falling down and getting back up

You're good times and hard luck

True love and Amazing Grace

Working all week for a backache

Raising cane, Friday nights

Sunday church to set it right

They can write it on my stone

My life's been a country song

Oh, my life's been a country song
