Jimmie Van Zant - Unfinished Life lyrics

He had everything he wanted All his stars were lining up Like an inside straight When you go all in on a Vegas run Then one rainy night While driving his Mercedes up that ladder He lost control of what he thought he had And his life was done The preacher man said Here lies the richest man in town Maybe in heaven He'll finally find happiness he never found Man, it hit me like a bolt of lighting Living was just pa**ing right by me Time to slow down, take a look around Tomorrow can't replace what I've got right now Running along at the speed of crazy Blowing right past the gifts God gave me Nobody gets to go around this world twice Lord, don't let me live an unfinished life Sat on an old park bench Man, I kicked off my shoes Felt the gra** between my toes First time since I don't know when Thought about the days I wasted All the things I left unsaid How that big bra** ring I'd been chasin' Ain't gonna matter in the end Just about then a kid walked up Said Mister have you got the time? Smiled as I took that watch off my wrist Said, "Son, you can have mine" Man, it hit me like a bolt of lighting Living was just pa**ing right by me Time to slow down, take a look around Tomorrow can't replace what I've got right now Running along at the speed of crazy Blowing right past the gifts God gave me Nobody gets to go around this world twice Lord, don't let me live an unfinished life
