Wade Hayes - This Is The Life For Me lyrics

(wade hayes/chick rains) I was born in oklahoma in 1969 My daddy played the honky tonks Out on the county line One night he took me with him Through those swingin' doors And i heard that country music Saw that crowded dance floor Dad made fifty dollars And i stayed up 'til three And i thought This is the life for me By the time i turned fourteen I was pickin' lead guitar Everyday i went to school And at night i played the bars Two or three years later I noticed something strange All the looks that i was gettin' From the girls began to change I knew right then and there What i was gonna be This is the life for me This is the life The only one i want to know Everyday another town And every night another show Ever since i was a boy I've had this crazy dream Now i know it was meant to be This is the life This is the life for me Well i tried to go to college Just to see if i was wrong But that ain't the kind of knowledge That helps you write a country song I got my education on the wild side of life Through a cloud of smoke so thick That you could cut it with a knife There was no doubt about it As far as i could see This is the life for me This is the life The only one i want to know Everyday another town And every night another show Ever since i was a boy I've had this crazy dream Now i know it was meant to be This is the life This is the life for me Yeah this is the life This is the life for me.
