I ain't tryin' to be a hero, just tryin' to cash a paycheck Till the clock hits zero, make the most of these days left Found a few shortcuts, picked up a couple secrets Don't have it figured out yet, but I've learned the hard way is More drunk in love than habits kick More miracles than magic tricks More green grass grows than green on dollar bills More babies raised than raising hell More get back ups than times you fell Well I don't know it all, hey but I know how it feels To be the guy that's tryin' to come back from the high Just tryin' to win life Been in a couple scrapes I barely got out of Got a couple scars I kinda ain't proud of But you can't be afraid to drive Till the gas tank's empty If your glass is half full, you better make damn sure it's whiskey And be more drunk in love than habits kick More miracles than magic tricks More green grass grows than green on dollar bills More babies raised than raising hell More get back ups than times you fell Well I don't know it all, hey but I know how it feels To be the guy that's tryin' to come back from the high Watchin' those numbers on the scoreboard clock Don't know why, still tryin' to win life But if you lose yourself in someone else Then maybe you don't lose it all Just be more drunk in love than habits kick More miracles than magic tricks More green grass grows than green on dollar bills More babies raised than raising hell More get back ups than times you fell Well I don't know it all, hey but I know how it feels To be the guy that's tryin' to come back from the high And that Hail Mary's comin' down on the five yard line And I'm tryin' to win life Just tryin' to win life I'll be tryin' to win life I'll be tryin' to win life
