Telephone rings An ol' way back friend Called to catch up Say man how you been? Said I ain't half bad I'm holding it down Man, I got more Good things than I can count Well I got one truck that's about paid off One fishing pole in the back One old pair of boots that fits just right One joke that'll make you laugh One day at a time I'm living the dream With a pretty girl from a one-horse town Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek, As the sun goes down When all is said and done You only get one life But with a life this good I Guess you only need one You only need one He said it sure sounds like You're doing pretty well Said I ain't got it figured out But as far I can tell The only guarantee round here is Heaven and taxes So it's good thing I ain't looking for no greener grasses I got one truck that's about paid off One fishing pole in the back One old pair of boots that fits just right One joke that'll make you laugh One day at a time I'm living the dream With a pretty girl from a one light town Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek, As the sun goes down When all is said and done You only get one life But with a life this good I Guess you only need one These days the days sure love to fly So I just jump in and enjoy the ride In that old truck that's about paid off One fishing pole in the back One old pair of boots that fit just right Man, ain't nothing wrong with that One day at a time I'm living the dream With a pretty girl from a one-horse town Puts a beer in my hand, and a kiss on my cheek, As the sun goes down When all is said and done You only get one life But with a life this good I guess you only need one
