"When I Look Back" lyrics

"When I Look Back"

I guess I get it from my pops
That ain't ever gonna stop
Yeah, I told her like a watch in my pocket
Yeah, they're gonna settle down
One day it'll all come around
But the only thing I know right now is

I'ma live this Friday nights
Like the next one's my last
You only get one pass
So when I look back

I wanna say I took the cap off every toolbox beer
I raised my fair share hell out here
When I look back
I wanna say I left my name on every old dirt road
I kicked up dust in every truck I drove
When I look back
'Fore they lay me down
'Fore they put my boots in the cold hard ground

Yeah, I wanna say that I lived every minute
Right down to that last bit of red dirt
Falls through my hourglass
When I look back

Now I don't wanna have regrets
Somewhere up there in my head
Wonderin' how it could have been if I did it different instead
I don't wanna have to worry if I got it all wrong
Yeah, 'fore it's all gone

When I look back
I wanna say I took the cap off every toolbox beer
I raised my fair share hell out here
When I look back
I wanna say I left my name on every old dirt road
I kicked up dust in every truck I drove
When I look back
'Fore they lay me down
'Fore they put my boots in the cold hard ground

Yeah, I wanna say that I lived every minute
Right down to that last bit of red dirt
Falls through my hourglass
When I look back
When I look back, yeah

When I look back

I wanna say I took the cap off every toolbox beer
I raised my fair share hell out here
When I look back
I wanna say I left my name on every old dirt road
I kicked up dust in every truck I drove
When I look back
'Fore they lay me down
'Fore they put my boots in the cold hard ground

Yeah, I wanna say that I lived every minute
Right down to that last bit of red dirt
Falls through my hourglass
When I look-
When I look back
