My daddy was blue collar
|
He worked for the man all of his life
|
He showed up when he didn't want to be there
|
A man of his word, believed in doing things right
|
I remember when i was a kid
|
He'd say time and time again
|
It's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
I'm a thankful man for every turn
|
On every highway I've been down
|
Every mile I've lost, every crossroad stop
|
Every storm that turned me around
|
Oh, it's better than I could have planned
|
It's made me who I am
|
It's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
My mama was a dreamer
|
But she was the rock that we all leaned on
|
She taught me about the lessons in life
|
The difference between what's right and wrong
|
And every word was a gift from her
|
That helped me understand
|
It's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
I'm a thankful man for every turn
|
On every highway I've been down
|
Every mile I've lost, every crossroad stop
|
Every storm that turned me around
|
Oh, it's better than I could have planned
|
It's made me who I am
|
It's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
It's better than I could have planned
|
It's made me who I am
|
It's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
t's a good life; it's a real good life
|
And I'm a thankful man
|
