There's a live oak tree you can still see off ol 129
|
you can see the scars its missin bark
|
where it stopped my truck that night
|
they say I took a swing at my best friend
|
for tryin to take my keys
|
next thing I knew I was upside down
|
thinkin this is it for me
|
|
when you see life flash before your eyes
|
the good the bad the wrong the right
|
fade into a bright white line
|
shinin down on you
|
your hangin on by a thread
|
wondering which ones your last breath
|
knowing theres so much you have left to do
|
live your life a better man
|
when youve been, halfway to heaven
|
|
first thing I did was hug my momma
|
I even hugged my dad
|
told them both how much I love them
|
never saw daddy cry like that
|
started hangin out with my little brother
|
man I never missed a game
|
I'm in church every sunday mornin
|
I pray everyday
|
|
when you see life flash before your eyes
|
the good the bad the wrong the right
|
fade into a bright white line
|
shinin down on you
|
your hangin on by a thread
|
wonderin which ones your last breath
|
knowin theres so much you have left to do
|
live your life a better man
|
when you've been, halfway to heaven
|
|
I wont waste, one minute
|
yeah my life's changed
|
and I'm gonna live it
|
|
like I'm hangin on by a thread
|
wondering which ones my last breath
|
knowin theres so much I have left to do
|
I live my life a better man
|
I live my life a better man
|
cuz I've been, halfway to heaven
|
