We all get so busy Like bees on the hive Live our lives around the boss Tied to our nine to fives Gotta make a livin' But you still gotta live It only takes a second So don't you forget Stop and smell the horses Pick the blackberries off the vine Taste the tequila 'Fore you kill it with that lime Listen to the crickets Watch the sunset and sunrise Do all the little things That make you feel alive It ain't always roses Remember stop and smell the horses Some folks get by easy And some are just gettin' by We're all on this rock together On our way to the by and by We're cowboys and we're teachers We're old and we're young But no matter who you are no matter where you're from Stop and smell the horses Pick the blackberries off the vine Taste the tequila 'Fore you kill it with that lime Listen to the crickets Watch the sunset and sunrise Do all the little things That make you feel alive It ain't always roses Remember stop and smell the horses Stop and smell the horses Pick the blackberries off the vine Taste the tequila 'Fore you kill it with that lime Listen to the crickets Watch the sunset and sunrise Do all the little things That make you feel alive It ain't always roses Remember stop and smell the horses
