Sipping Life Lyrics

I raced through my twenties guzzling beer

One more for the road became my cheer

Hazy brain when morning came

Then did it all again without complaint

Gulping life, I felt such a roar

All of my emotions raged to the core

Those years flew by in a blaze

With my mind in a constant daze

Life can be gulped or sipped

Depending how far the glass is tipped

Sipping life, day by day

Was something I learned later 'long the way

Then came my thirties, where wine was king

Merlots and Ports needed savoring

With my taste buds now in the act

I found new sensations guess I lacked

A slower pace let my mind explore

All that I had missed from the barroom floor

I bet there was lots I didn't see

Like Ann, who I dreamed of, maybe she dreamed of me

Life can be gulped or sipped

Depending how far the glass is tipped

Sipping life, day by day

Gave me time to smell the roses 'long the way

Life can be gulped or sipped

Depending how far the glass is tipped

Sipping life, day by day

Gives us time to smell the roses 'long the way
