"Life Like" lyrics

My dad said I was crazy 'cause the day that I turned eighteen
Got a tattoo on my arm, kissed my mama, packed my car
Yeah, I got my first cigarettes, grandpa loved those Marlboro Reds
And I jumped off with both feet in

I hit that interstate, headed straight for 24
The highway played my song, got to quit my second job
That fire that's been burnin' deep inside my chest
Says, "Let go, let God do the rest"

I wanna live my whole life like I got one day left
I wanna take every shot, every chance that I get
Risk it all for a girl, let her crash my whole world
Gonna wake up and then do it all again
I wanna laugh like a cowboy chasin' that wind
With my heart always open even if I don't win
Yeah, when I look back, when it's all in the past
I wanna say that I lived
A life like that

Some people might not like me, guess I never really cared
Got thick skin and big dreams, so whatever gets me there
My circle's gettin' smaller, must be doin' somethin' right
'Cause I've only got so much time

I wanna live my whole life like I got one day left
I wanna take every shot, every chance that I get
Risk it all for a girl, let her crash my whole world
Gonna wake up and then do it all again
I wanna laugh like a cowboy chasin' that wind
With my heart always open even if I don't win
Yeah, when I look back, when it's all in the past
I wanna say that I lived
A life like that

I wanna live my whole life like I got one day left
Wanna take every shot, every chance that I get
Risk it all for a girl, let her crash my whole world
Gonna wake up and then do it all again
I wanna laugh like a cowboy chasin' that wind
With my heart always open even if I don't win
Yeah, when I look back, when it's all in the past
I wanna say that I lived
A life like that

A life like that
I wanna say that I lived
A life like that
