Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Time flies by
In the blink of an eye
When you get paid for having too much fun
Kicking out the foot lights
Living the night life
Like tomorrow ain't never gonna come
Wouldn't change much of nothing
About this road we've been running
For of wild times, wild women, and a song
But we would've taking much better care of ourselves
If we had known we were gonna live this long

Whiskey goes down
Like cold, spring water
Over rocks, and the close of the day
When you're flying like eagles
Down American highways
You lose a lot of friends along the way
But we just keep on moving
And rolling along
Can't look back
We might turn to stone
But we would've taking much better care of ourselves
If we would have known we was gonna live this long

If we had known we were gonna live this long
We might have changed things up a bit
We still would've lived out every song
Just maybe not quite as fast as we did

But we're in pretty good shape, Will
The shape we're in
We'll keep rocking along, until we're gone
But we would've taking much better care of ourselves
If we had known we were gonna live this long
Yeah, we would've taking much better care of ourselves
If we had known we were gonna live this long
