The Life Lyrics - Lucky Old Sun Deluxe - Kenny Chesney

It was early one morning 

Playa del Carmen 

That's when I first met Jose 

He had a twelve foot Schooner 

A three foot cooler 

Full of the catch of the day 

And he was wrinkled from grinning 

From all of the sun he had been in 

He was barefoot, cerveza in hand 

He said "Gracias senor" when I paid him too much for 

All of the snapper he had 

Now I told him my friend it ain't nothing 

In the best broken Spanish I knew 

I said I make a good living 

Back home where I'm from 

He smiled and said "amigo me too"

He said I fish and I play my guitar 

I laugh at the bar with my friends 

I go home to my wife 

I pray every night 

I can do it all over again 

Somewhere over Texas 

I thought of my Lexus 

And all the stuff I work so hard for 

And all the things that I've gathered 

From climbing that ladder 

Didn't make much sense anymore 

They say my nest egg ain't ready to hatch yet 

They keep holding my feet to the fire 

They call it paying the price 

So that one day in life 

I'll have what I need to retire 

Photos 

And just fish and play my guitar 

And laugh at the bar with my friends 

And go home to my wife 

And pray every night 

I can do it all over again 

And to think that I thought for a while there that I had it made 

When the truth is I'm really just dying 

To live like Jose 

And just fish 

Play my guitar 

Laugh at the bar with my friends 

Go home to my wife 

Pray every night 

I can do it all over again 

Wouldn't that be the life 

Wouldn't that be the life
