Days I Shoulda Died by Toby Keith Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2021

[Chorus]
My momma said I been like this from the time I was born
Since I was a boy, my drug of choice was more
If it was a bet or a dare, I swear I was your guy
I did most of my livin' on days I shoulda died

[Verse 1]
I've danced with the devil a hundred and too many times
I've pushed my luck so damn far, so far, I'm all right
I ain't in the grave yet, but no one can say I ain't tried

[Chorus 2]
And I've chased crazy women
Made jukebox decisions
Did most of my livin'
On days I shoulda died

[Verse 2]
Hey hey, what can I say
All the good stories start the same way
If you've ever thunk it
Then I've probably done it
[Chorus 3]
I'm better off now
That I settled down
But I'm nothing without
Them days that I shoulda died

[Verse 3]
I'm sweeter and wiser, but somewhere in the back of my mind
There's an old Zippo lighter lookin' for a fuse it can light
I might not today, but one day you know I just might
Spark that ol' flame, throw it all away
For one of them good ol' days
I shoulda died

[Verse 2]
Hey hey what can I say
All the good stories start the same way
If you've ever thunk it
Then I've probably done it

[Chorus 3]
I'm better off now
That I settled down
But I'm nothing without
Them days that I shoulda died
[Outro]
I've chased crazy women
Made jukebox decisions
Did most of my livin'
On days that I shoulda died
