Lucky To Be Here Lyrics

Lucky To Be Here lyrics

(Kenny Beard/Troy Gentry/Eddie Montgomery)



I'm not one to whine or cry
or wallow in self-pity

I take life in stride and smell the roses when I can


I am one of those lucky guys who's happy just to be here

Doin' what I
love and thankful that I am 



With all of life's temptations

And
this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't long since dead and
gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my maker

I'm tellin' ya'll
I'm lucky to be here at all 



My hard head, the cigarettes and straight
Kentucky Bourbon

Have taken their toll and done their best to do me
in

Guitars and beer joint bars up and down the highway

If I could start
all over, I'd do it all again 



With all of life's temptations

And
this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't long since dead and
gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my maker

I'm tellin' ya'll
I'm lucky to be here at all 



And when I die I'll thank the good Lord
face to face

For his patience and grace 



With all of life's
temptations

And this dream that I've been chasin'

It's a wonder I ain't
long since dead and gone

I've cheated undertakers, dang near met my
maker

I'm tellin' ya'll I'm lucky to be here at all
