Wake up in the morning Get to living my life Making sure that I'm all that I can be Went to church on Sunday There was a moment that came I swear it was like the Lord spoke right to me So now I'm slowing it down and I'm looking around And I'm lovin' this town and I'm doing alright Ain't worried 'bout nothing except the man I wanna be I'm thinking it's time to be livin' the rhyme When I'm singing a song about nothing but right And it'd sure be nice if you would roll with me Saw a kid last winter only twenty years old Being laid to rest while his mom stood by his side Sure was hard to watch those tears roll down her face Made me think how we all just have our time So now I'm slowing it down and I'm looking around And I'm lovin' this town and I'm doing alright Ain't worried 'bout nothing except the man I wanna be I'm thinking it's time to be livin' the rhyme When I'm singing a song about nothing but right And it'd sure be nice if you would roll with me Who knows what's up ahead I think I'd rather not know instead So now I'm slowing it down and I'm looking around And I'm lovin' this town and I'm doing alright Ain't worried 'bout nothing except the man I wanna be I'm thinking it's time to be livin' the rhyme When I'm singing a song about nothing but right And it'd sure be nice if you would roll with me
