Whiskey Myers - Other Side lyrics

Your daddy was a ramblin' man
One that's been down a time or two
I was a late night gambling man
Back before I met your mama and you
So let me drop a little wisdom on ya
Before I get old gray so that you
Don't do the things that I've done
No you don't have to make the same mistakes
Cause I won't always be around
No I won't always be around

So here's a few things I've
Learned from my crooked road
Like life ain't worth living if
You spend it alone
It takes a whole lot of love and
A happy home to get it right
And a little something from the other side
You know I tasted that desert wind
I've danced through a hurricane
I climbed the highest mountains
Had the baddest women and champagne but
It didn't bring me happiness
I was only empty til I found love
So boy don't ever lose yourself
And don't forget that there's
Someone up above
Cause I won't always be around for when
This ole world gets you down

So here's a few things I've
Learned from my crooked road
Like life ain't worth living if
You spend it alone
It takes a whole lot more than flesh
And bone to get it right
So stick to your guns and
Let your roots run deep
Don't be scared of taking a leap
It takes some falling down
And getting back on
Your feet before you learn to fly
And a little something from the other side
A little something from the other side

So here's a few things I've
Learned from my crooked road
Ain't nothing wrong with never growing old
It's about the times you share not the
Things you own or the bottom line
And though one day I won't be around
Just know I was happy with the life I found
But It took a whole lot of falling and
Stumbling down before I got it right
It took a little something
From the other side
A little something from the other side
