Once I fall in love, then I'll be happy But then you fall in love and there's still a hole
Once I get some money, it'll all be easy But then you get that money, you still feel broke
Once I get a little older, I won't worry Then you get older and it don't feel like it should
I'm thinking once I learn to grow right where I'm planted
Maybe that's when life starts getting good
Once I get a car that don't stall in the morning
I can make it anywhere I want to
But I can see it right now sitting in my driveway
Afraid if I take it out, I'll chip the paint
Once I get a house that I can hang my hat on
I bet I'll want to build a bigger one if I could
Yeah, I'm thinking once I learn to grow right where I'm planted
Maybe that's when life starts getting good
Oh, getting good
Getting good
Life starts getting good
I'm thinking maybe that's when life starts getting good
That's when life starts getting good
Yeah
Ooh
That's when life starts getting good
Ooh
I'm afraid of both my parents dying
I call my dad, he answers right away
And I didn't hear a word cause I was thinking
About what happened


It hasn't happened yet, but it will someday
And we hang up the phone before I know it
I'm crying over the conversation my fear took
I'm thinking once I learn to soak up every moment
I'll realize my life's already good
Already good
Already good
Life's already good
Good, yeah
I'll realize my life's already good
So good
Thank God that my life's already good
Thank God that my life's already good
