lyrics

Jimdog’s at the door with Wild Turkey
Dunny’ on his way with the smokes
Them boys know I’m always thirsty
And I never say no to a toke
It aint the years in your life after all, it’s the life in your years
Luke knows that everything’s wicked
With a voice like that he’s got every right
Martin’s looking fly in his aviator shades
And they’ll be up rocking all night
It aint the years in your life Sevenball, it’s the life in your years

Chorus
I’m not worried about things I haven’t got
When the things that I do don’t seem like a lot
I’m just making the most of what I can depend on
Getting by, getting high, and doing things my way

I’ve been living out of a suitcase
For as long now as I can recall
It doesn’t bother me I don’t have my own place
When my boys got my back should I fall
It’s not the years in your life boys, it’s the life in your years
This life’s not about riches or glory
It’s just about your state of mind
My friends are all of them heroes
And each one of them one of a kind
It’s not the years in your life friends, it’s the life in your years

Chorus

I’ve got an old friend named cocaine
Used to see a lot these days just now and then
I’ve heard it said he is bad company for me
But you know what he helps keep me sane
This song it goes out to my momma
For I know that she don’t understand
Hell it sure can’t be fun waiting to bury your young
But it’s not the years but the life makes a man
It aint the years in your life ma, it’s the life in your years

Chorus
