Lucky Man
Counting Blessings: Highway Bros' Lucky Man Unveils Life's Gratitude
Lyrics
I have days where I hate my job
I experience days where I dislike my job.
This little town, and the whole world too
I feel discontent with both this small town and the entire world.
Last Sunday when the Bengals lost
Last Sunday, the Bengals' loss affected my mood negatively.
Lord, it put me in a bad mood
The Bengals' loss put me in a bad mood.
I have moments when I curse the rain
There are moments when I express frustration with the rain.
Then complain when the sun's too hot
I complain when the sun is too hot.
I look around at what everyone has
Observing what others have, I sometimes forget about my own blessings.
And I forget about all I've got
I forget about the things I possess.
But I know I'm a lucky man
Despite challenges, I recognize that I am fortunate.
God's given me a pretty fair hand
I believe God has dealt me a reasonably good hand in life.
Got a house and a piece of land
I have a house and a piece of land.
A few dollars in a coffee can
I have a few dollars saved in a coffee can.
My old truck's still running good
My old truck is still in good working condition.
My ticker's ticking like they say it should
My heart is healthy and functions as it should.
I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving
I have dinner cooking, and I receive love from a good woman.
And one more day to be my little kid's dad
I have another day to be a father to my children.
Lord, knows I'm a lucky man
I acknowledge that I am a fortunate man in the eyes of the Lord.
Got some friends who would be here fast
I have friends who would come to my aid quickly.
I could call 'em any time of day
I can call my friends at any time of the day.
Got a brother who's got my back
My brother supports and has my back.
Got a mama who I swear's a saint
I have a mother whom I consider to be a saint.
Got a brand new rod and reel
I have a new fishing rod and reel.
Got a full week off this year
This year, I have a full week off from work.
Dad had a close call last spring
My father had a close call last spring, and it's a miracle he survived.
It's a miracle he's still here
My father's survival is a miracle.
But I know I'm a lucky man
Despite challenges, I recognize that I am fortunate.
God's given me a pretty fair hand
I believe God has dealt me a reasonably good hand in life.
Got a house and a piece of land
I have a house and a piece of land.
A few dollars in a coffee can
I have a few dollars saved in a coffee can.
My old truck's still running good
My old truck is still in good working condition.
My ticker's ticking like they say it should
My heart is healthy and functions as it should.
I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving
I have dinner cooking, and I receive love from a good woman.
And one more day to be my little kid's dad
I have another day to be a father to my children.
Lord, knows I'm a lucky man
I acknowledge that I am a fortunate man in the eyes of the Lord.
My old truck's still running good
My old truck is still in good working condition.
My ticker's ticking like they say it should
My heart is healthy and functions as it should.
I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving
I have dinner cooking, and I receive love from a good woman.
And even my bad days ain't that bad
Even on my bad days, they are not excessively challenging.
Yeah, I'm a lucky man
Yes, overall, I consider myself a fortunate man.
I'm a lucky lucky man
I am indeed a very fortunate man.
