Ricky Skaggs – Life's Too Long (To Live Like This) lyrics
Drive time traffic in the pouring rain six car pileup in the passing lane
Can't help thinking while I shake my fist life's too long to live like this
Mailbox filling up with bills to pay bossman hanging on my back all day
Gonna work me to the bone I guess life's too long to live like this
Come here baby give your man a hug
All we've got that they can't take is love
Let 'em roll we ain't got much to lose
But these stay-put stay-home way too alone blues
Ain't no future in this TV guide ain't no reason we should stay inside
Someone's having all the fun we miss life's too long to live like this
Come here baby give your man a hug...
Life's too long yeah life's too long
Come here baby give your man a kiss
Life's too long to live like this
Life's too long yeah life's too long...
Life's too long yeah life's too long...
