A Life Worth Livin' Lyrics

Well I woke up this morning to a golden ray of light

Shining right into my bloodshot eyes

I stumbled to the kitchen knowing something wasn't right

I could'a sworn I heard a trumpet in the sky

Well now I ain't never been the mystical kind

But one look out my window I was changin' my mind

I saw mother Theresa in the yard

I saw Ghandi across the street workin' on a car

I saw Albert Einstein he was playin' my guitar and singing

Take what you've been given, and make a life worth livin'

Well as you can imagine I was horrified at best

I'm not used to seeing dead celebrities

Well was I goin' crazy was I sick and over-stressed

I shut my eyes and dropped down to my knees

And I said God I'll never take another drink again

I don't think he was listening 'cause right about then

I saw Elvis standing at the door

I saw Jesus sittin' cross-legged on the floor

I saw Charley Darwin in the Beagle offshore singin'

Take what you've been givin', and make a life worth livin'

Psychotic episode or heavenly sign?

Either way I'm changin' how I use up my time

I saw mother Theresa in the yard

I saw Ghandi across the street in a shirt that said Nascar

I saw Albert Einstein he was pickin' my guitar and singing

Take what you've been given, don't throw it away

and make a life worth livin'

I saw Elvis standing at my door

I saw Jesus sittin' cross-legged on the floor

I saw Charley Darwin in the Beagle offshore singin'

Take what you've been givin', don't throw it away

and make a life worth livin'
