Take It As It Comes Lyrics

Daddy up and left when I was just twelve

Didn't mind though life with him was hell

Everybody thought life was gonna fall apart

But I knew then it was only the start

You gotta take life as it comes

Some people stick it out some are still on the run

Some it aint easy some of its fun

But whatever the hell happens gotta take it as it comes

Daddy did a lot a drugs he tried to kill his wife

Always was a runner all of his life

Felt sorry for my mama with her broken heart

But I knew then it was only the start

You gotta take life as it comes

Some people stick it out some are still on the run

Some it aint easy some of its fun

But whatever the hell happens gotta take it as it comes

Mama left alone with two mouths to feed

Nothing on his mind but his foolish greed

Living her life for everybody else

Put herself in a box and away on a shelf

You gotta take life as it comes

Some people stick it out some are still on the run

Some it aint easy some of its fun

But whatever the hell happens gotta take it as it comes

Mama picked herself up forgive and forget

Nothing on his mind but his dumb regret

Always living his life with pain strain and strife

Beat himself up and dropped out on life

You gotta take life as it comes

Some people stick it out some are still on the run

Some it aint easy some of its fun

But whatever the hell happens gotta take it as it comes

Many years have passed hard feelings are gone

But the memories in my mind they live on and on

Gotta learn from the past if you wanna make a start

I got where I am today by listening to my heart

You gotta take life as it comes

Some people stick it out some are still on the run

Some it aint easy some of its fun

But whatever the hell happens gotta take it as it comes
