Life on Ya Songtext
von Danny Gokey

Sunday morning, all dressed for church
Took my buddy, rode a shortcut
Showed up all covered in dirt
Daddy took one look
′Bout to blow his top
I remember grandma said
It'll come out in the wash

Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain′t always pretty
Gonna get a little dirty

Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya, on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!


About five years later
I can't remember her name
I never saw it coming
But man, I remember my first heartbreak
Grandma smiling
With that bit of a wrinkled face
Said, you ain't seen nothing yet
That girl was just a taste

Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain′t always pretty
I′m about get a little dirty

Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya, on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!

Girl, do you remember?
When we first met
Life hadn't had a chance
To throw all it had at us yet
And that was ten years later
And you can do the math
But it all adds up to everything
That grandma said way back


Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta go a little further
Gotta get a little longer
It gets a little sweeter
When you get a little on ya!

Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain′t always pretty
Gonna get a little dirty

Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya, on ya!
On ya, on ya!
Yeah, yeah

Gotta get a little life on ya!
Little life on ya, yeah

You got to live a little
Breathe stronger
Live harder, yeah

Oh, you got to breathe harder
Love stronger, yeah
