Darius Rucker - Learn to Live lyrics

Grandpa Campbell would sit upon his front porch And I'd be right there just sitting on his knee He'd tell stories of love and feast and famine And I'd hang onto every word that he would breathe He'd say boy as you walk through this life Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by You gotta live and learn You gotta crash and burn You gotta make some stances And take some chances You gotta live and love And take all life has to give You gotta live and learn So you can learn to live Well I left home and I went to Carolina I didn't sail off just to see what I could see I did some things that I wasn't really proud of Sometimes life just got the best of me But I'd always think back to those days And I know what grandpa Campbell would say He'd say You gotta live and learn You gotta crash and burn You gotta make some stances And take some chances You gotta live and love And take all life has to give You gotta live and learn So you can learn to live After years of running round and searching I found me a woman who loves me just for me All those mistakes I thought that I was making Led me right here to you sitting on my knee Son as you walk through this life Here's a little wisdom that will help you get by You gotta live and learn You gotta crash and burn You gotta make some stances You gotta take some chances You gotta live and love And take all life has to give You gotta live and learn You gotta live and learn So you can learn to live Learn to live
