Live Like You Were Dying

1986 Harley
Blowing smoke and sucking oil
My daddy said, 'Buy it and you're crazy boy'
You can't tell me nothin'


It took two months to fix it up
And one day to lay it down
I got a little hitch in my get-along now
Can't tell me nothin'


Talk is cheap and free advice
Is worth the price you pay
I had to find out for myself the hard way
Can't tell me nothin'


Hometown homecoming sweetheart
Nobody thought I had a prayer
Her mama said, 'Boy, don't you come around here'
Can't tell me nothin'


They say be careful what you wish for
I wanted to be her man
Two babies and a trailer later, here I am
Can't tell me nothin'


Talk is cheap and free advice
Is worth the price you pay
I had to find out for myself the hard way
Can't tell me nothin'


They say drinking will kill you
The same thing with rolling smokes
But that's two of the three things I like most
Can't tell me nothin'


I know what the good book preaches
But I know how I am
I sure hope somebody up there understands
Can't tell me nothin'
Can't tell me nothin'
