Montgomery Gentry

Lucky to Be Here

I'm not one to whine or cry or wallow in self-pity

I take life in stride and smell the roses when I can

I am one of those lucky guys who's happy just to be here

Doin' what I love and thankful that I am

With all of life's temptations

And this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't long since dead and gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my maker

I'm tellin' ya'll I'm lucky to be here at all

My hard head, the cigarettes and straight Kentucky Bourbon

Have taken their toll and done their best to do me in

Guitars and beer joint bars up and down the highway

If I could start all over, I'd do it all again

With all of life's temptations

And this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't long since dead and gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my maker

I'm tellin' ya'll I'm lucky to be here at all

And when I die I'll thank the good Lord face to face

For his patience and grace

With all of life's temptations

And this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't long since dead and gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my maker

I'm tellin' ya'll I'm lucky to be here at all
