I Get To

I don't like waking up at 5am I don't like riding the train again and again I don't like this 9 to 5 that I'm in Bills - they never stop coming in Sometimes I want to be a kid again But life don't work that way I wish it did Don't always like this adulting thing Why can't somebody just pay me to sing? But every don't has a bigger do So I'll keep my eyes on these things I want to play with my kids Laugh with my wife Take my paid for car Out for a drive And when I think of all the things I have to do I tell myself I don't have to - I get to I get to Don't want you thinking all I do is complain I'm not like that - maybe I should explain I'm thankful for this life the good Lord gave me But if I had the chance to do it again I'd focus on the stuff that makes my heart sing The ones I love -- not the things I want All the joy this good life brings me I want to play with my kids Laugh with my wife Take my paid for car Out for a drive And when I think of all the things I have to do I tell myself I don't have to - I get to I get to Oh, I get to I get to I get to wake up every day, hug and kiss my wife Throw the Lord big props - for giving me life I get to tuck my kids in bed every single night I get to get to get to I want to play with my kids Laugh with my wife Take my paid for car Go for a drive And when I think of all the things I have to do I tell myself I don't have to - I get to I get to Oh, I get to I get to
