Tell Me Twice Songtext
von Chayce Beckham

i′ve worked a twelve hour day on a saturday off
then made a little money on the side then i lost it
hurt my reputation in my own hometown
i learned the value of a dollar
cause i had to work for it
and rolled my windows up when the rain is pouring down
but from where i'm sitting now
i′ve learned a hell of a lot from taking good advice
but a whole lot more just from living life
you don't got to tell me twice


to take a day off when you need the rest
loosen up the drag on a two pound test
drink a cold beer when the weather's right
but you don′t got to tell me twice
to spend your time off with the ones you love
and sending up prayers to the man above
say you know how it goes
after every low comes a high that′s life
you better hold on and hold on tight
but you don't have to tell me twice
no you don′t have to tell me twice

thought i knew about love when i was seventeen
i cared more about her than i cared about me
had to learn how to walk the line like johnny said
you better call your mama don't let her call you
don′t lie to your daddy he knows when it ain't the truth
he′s the one who knows you best
he says your going to get burned
if you try to set the world on fire
and don't look down if you're walking on wires
you don′t got to tell me twice

to take a day off when you need the rest
loosen up the drag on a two pound test
drink a cold beer when the weather′s right
but you don't got to tell me twice
to spend your time off with the ones you love
and sending up prayers to the man above
say you know how it goes


after every low comes a high that′s life
you better hold on and hold on tight
but you don't have to tell me twice
no you don′t have to tell me twice

that's life
it′s alright

to take a day off when you need the rest
loosen up the drag on a two pound test
drink a cold beer when the weather's right
but you don't got to tell me twice
to spend your time off with the ones you love
and sending up prayers to the man above
say you know how it goes
after every low comes a high that′s life
you better hold on and hold on tight
but you don′t have to tell me twice
no you don't have to tell me twice
