Key to Life

Moved to a new town

Didn't make a penny for the better part of two-plus years

Got through somehow, losin' till winnin'

And I ended up standin' here

Wake up one day, look back, can't say

You knew it when you started out

Me and my lady love ridin' in my old truck

Got me to the here and now

The key to life ain't openin' a lock to a bag full of money (Bag full of money)

The key to life ain't under the mat to some green grass sunny (Out in the country)

It's the simple things like you and me

Eastbound Down, no place to be

Just drivin' around

Turnin' that key to life

It ain't all worked out, but everything will be all right

Just livin' that dream and turnin' that key to life

It's lemon in your ice tea, homemade ice cream

Colder beer and closer friends

It's a good back porch and a 4x4

In a summer that's slow to end

It's Amazing Grace when you think it ain't coming and you're wrong

It's a second wind when you thought that breeze was gone

C'mon

The key to life ain't openin' a lock to a bag full of money (Bag full of money)

The key to life ain't under the mat to some green grass sunny (Out in the country)

It's the simple things like you and me

Eastbound Down, no place to be

Just drivin' around

Turnin' that key to life

Yeah, we drink too much, but everything will be all right

Just livin' that dream and turnin' that key to life (Key to life)

Some doors swing wide open, some stay forever closed

I may not know it all

One thing I know is

The key to life ain't openin' a lock to a bag full of money (Bag full of money)

The key to life ain't under the mat to some green grass sunny (Out in the country)

It's the simple things like you and me

Eastbound Down, no place to be

Just drivin' around

Turnin' that key to life

It ain't all worked out, but everything will be all right

Just livin' that dream and turnin' that key to life
