Lyrics Danny Gokey – Life On Ya
Text:
Sunday morning, all dressed for church
Took my buddy, rode a shortcut
Showed up all covered in dirt
Daddy took one look
But grandma said, «It’ll come out in the wash.»
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain’t always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
About five years later
I can’t remember her name
I never saw it coming
But man, I remember my first heartbreak
Grandma smiling
With that bit of a wrinkled face
Said, «You ain’t seen nothing yet,
That girl was just a taste»
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain’t always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Yeah
Girl, do you remember?
When we first met
Life hadn’t had a chance
And that was ten years later
And you can do the math
But it all adds up to everything
That grandma said way back
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta go a little further
Gotta get a little deeper
It gets a little sweeter
When you get a little on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain’t always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
On ya!
Yeah, yeah
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Little life on ya, yeah
You got to live a little
Breathe harder
Love stronger, yeah
You got to live harder
Love stronger, yeah
