Artist/Band: Kenny Chesney
Lyrics for Song: The Life
Lyrics for Album: Lucky Old Sun [Deluxe Edition] [2008]



It was early one mornin'

Playa del Carmen

That's when I first met Jose

He had a 12 foot Schooner

A 3 foot cooler

Full of the catch of the day.



And he was wrinkled from grinnin'

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 nothin'

In the best broken Spanish I knew

I said I make a good livin'

Back home where I'm from

He smiled and said Amigo me too.



Chorus:

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.



Chorus:

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 awhile 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

And pray every night

I can do it all over again.



Wouldn't that be the life?



Wouldn't that be the life?...
