Mama always said stand up to the truth There ain't no such thing as the fountain of youth Two wrongs never made it right Gra** ain't always greener on the other side Better save your money for a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may Only Wil Rogers never met a man he didn't like Always throw the first punch when it comes to a fight It ain't over till it's over and the fat lady sings Only quitters and losers throw the towel in the ring Well, I hope you ain't working on a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may It's a hush my mouth land sakes alive I don't believe that fisherman smell the same when they die Never put the cart before the horse Unless he knows how to push it of course Seems like I'm always dreamin on a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may And it was grandpa who said son you can't buy love You can jump in with both feet, but don't jump the gun Stay out of trouble count your lucky stars Never get drunk in two states inside the same bar Seems like I'm always drinking on a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may Grandma who said silence is golden You only answer to one he's the almighty beholder Bird in the hand is better than two in the nest Don't you count your chickens before they hatch Always save the loving for a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may It's a hush my mouth land sakes alive I don't believe that fisherman smell the same when they die Never put the cart before the horse Unless he knows how to push it of course Seems like I'm dancehall dreaming on my rainy days Count your blessings come as they may Talk being cheap well I took their advice And the older I get the more I know they were right Works for me may not work for you Everything I said was the goddang truth Well, I hope you ain't lonely on a rainy day Count your blessings come as they may And they're etched in my mind I can never forget 'em See it ain't what you said its just how you said it
