Grandpa said that gettin' there was the best part of the ride
Keep your eyes on Jesus don't let the devil ever rule your mind
Keep a good grip on the good book
He had wisdom and good advise
He said save a little for a rainy day
Then he looked me in the eyes He said

CHORUS:

Don't start a fight that you can't finish
Don't play the game if you don't plan to win it
Always do your best to do what's right
Don't lie, Don't cheat, Don't ever steal
Do an honest days work for your next meal
It helps to keep a good women by your side
That was my Grandpa's Recipe For Life

He always told me son
Have respect for your fellow man
Nobody owes you nothin' if you think they do you'd better think again
Life's only ours to borrow 'cause tomorrow may never come
Sometimes you gotta laugh at yourself and go out and find a little bit 'o fun, yeah

CHORUS
