Intro

Verse

Got a call last night from an old friend’s wife

Said I hate to bother you

Johnny Ray fell off the wagon

He’s been gone all afternoon

I know my buddy so I drove to Skully’s

And found him at the bar

I say hey man, what’s going on

He said I don’t know where to start

Sarah’s old car’s about to fall apart

And the washer quit last week

We had to put momma in the nursing home

And the baby’s cutting teeth

I didn’t get much work this week

And I got bills to pay

I said I know this ain’t what you wanna hear

But it’s what I’m gonna say

(Chorus)

 Sounds like life to me it ain’t no fantasy

 It’s just a common case of everyday reality

 Man I know it’s tough but you gotta suck it up

 To hear you talk you’re caught up in some tragedy

 It sounds like life to me

Verse

 Well his face turned red and he shook his head

He said you don’t understand

Three kids and a wife depend on me

And I’m just one man

To top it off I just found out

That Sarah’s 2 months late

I said hey bartender set us up a round

We need to celebrate

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

 Sounds like life to me plain old destiny

 Yeah the only thing for certain is uncertainty

 You gotta hold on tight just enjoy the ride

 Get used to all this unpredictability

 It sounds like life to me

 Man I know its tough but you gotta suck it up

 To hear you talk you’re caught up in some tragedy

 It sounds like life to me

 Sounds like life to me

 Sounds like life
