Part Of It

My mama talked her daddy into lettin' me take her out our junior year

She was a hallway queen, outta my league and I smiled ear to ear

And every night she was in my truck

Young love did what it does, and

Daddy said, "I know ya thought she was the one and it ain't no fun"

"But, son, that's part of it"

Sometimes you're gonna hurt like hell and have some scars from it

Leave you with a story to tell

Ya live and learn and good ones go

You find out on down the road

And when you lay it all out and get down to the heart of it

Man, that's just life

And that's all part of it

That's all part of it

Granddaddy cut his teeth and planted that seed across eighty acres of land

He steady checked that gauge and prayed for rain like he knew the Big Man

All the way till the day that he met Him

Daddy read his will to the family

I just about broke down when I found out he went and left me part of it

Sometimes you're gonna hurt like hell and have some scars from it

Leave you with a story to tell

Ya live and learn and good ones go

You find out on down the road

That when you lay it all out and get down to the heart of it

Man, that's just life

And that's all part of it, yeah

That's all part of it

Heartbreaks faded and I chased a dream up to Tennessee

Met the love of my life, gave me two more

And I don't know who I'd be

If they weren't part of it

Sometimes life takes care of itself and heals those scars from it

Leave you with a story to tell

Ya live and learn and good ones go

You find out on down the road

That when you lay it all out and get down to the heart of it

Man, that's just life

And that's all part of it, yeah

That's all part of it

It's all part of it

It's all part of it

It's all part of it

That's just a part of it

It's all part of it

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
