"Only Need One" lyrics

"Only Need One"

Telephone rings
An ol' way back friend
Called to catch up
Say, man, how you been?
Said, I ain't half bad
I'm holding it down
Man, I got more
Good things than I can count

Well, I got
One truck that's about paid off
One fishing pole in the back
One old pair of boots that fits just right
One joke that'll make you laugh
One day at a time I'm living the dream
With a pretty girl from a one-horse town
Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek
As the sun goes down
When all is said and done
You only get one life
But with a life this good
I guess you only need one
You only need one

He said it sure sounds like
You're doing pretty well
Said, I ain't got it figured out
But as far I can tell
The only guarantee round here is
Heaven and taxes
So it's good thing I ain't looking for no greener grasses

Cause I got
One truck that's about paid off
One fishing pole in the back
One old pair of boots that fits just right
One joke that'll make you laugh
One day at a time I'm living the dream
With a pretty girl from a one light town
Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek
As the sun goes down
When all is said and done
You only get one life
But with a life this good
I guess you only need one

These days the days sure love to fly
So I just jump in and enjoy the ride

In that
Old truck that's about paid off
One fishing pole in the back
One old pair of boots that fit just right
Man, ain't nothing wrong with that
One day at a time I'm living the dream
With a pretty girl from a one-horse town
Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek
As the sun goes down
When all is said and done
You only get one life
But with a life this good
I guess you only need one
