This is the life

Baseball games and mommas pies

Walking in the rain don’t get home till 9

Hanging out at the five and dime

Little girls dressed up for church

Little boys out in the dirt

Angel faces in the sunlight

And everywhere that I have roamed

There’s only one place I call home

This is the life

This is the good time

This the right place for me. X2

Just down the street at the old folks home

There’s a couple there talking on the phone

To their kids who never come

Well you can see it in their eyes

The love they shared throughout their lives

Has come full circle in their hearts

She said do you have a regret

He just took her hand and said

This is the life

This is the good time

This is the right place for me. x2

And there’s a God we seldom see

And when he gave his life for me

And when he died upon that tree..

I heard him say…

This is the life

This is the good time

This is the right place for me. x2
