Maybe it's drinkin' a glass-bottle Coke

From Petitt's on 5th and Main

Or turnin' a wrench on a soft-top Jeep

On a shade tree, sunny day

You're only here for a little while

Do somethin' that makes you smile

If it's roundin' up beer-drinkin' buddies

To tell stories you always tell

Or a three-dollar ticket under Friday night lights

To see a home team give 'em hell

You're only here for a little while

Do somethin' that makes you smile

Whatever it is, you better get to it

When you got the time, you gotta use it

The road runs out, so take it slow

When them good times roll, man, let 'em roll

You're only here for a little while

So do somethin' that makes you smile

For me, it's callin' in sick to work

And takin' Grandpa's tackle box

Down to that same old fishin' hole

Where he taught me how to tie a knot

I ain't done that in a little while

And that's somethin' that makes me smile

Whatever it is, you better get to it

When you got the time, you gotta use it

The road runs out, so take it slow

When them good times roll, man, let 'em roll

You're only here for a little while

So do somethin' that makes you smile

Those little things

Ain't little things

Those little things

Those are everything

Whatever it is, you better get to it

When you got the time, you gotta use it

The road runs out, so take it slow

When them good times roll, man, let 'em roll

You're only here for a little while

Yeah, you're only here for a little while

So do somethin' that makes you smile

Yeah, yeah

Oh
