Lyrics
[Intro]
Wake up, baby
Open them big, brown eyes
'Cause time is a wastin'
Rise and shine
[Verse 1]
Pull back the covers
Throw open the shades
It's a beautiful mornin'
Now seize the day
Hit the streets runnin'
And give it your best
'Cause when your time here's over
You'll get plenty of rest
[Chorus]
One life, so wear it well
One go around, give 'em hell
The years, they fly by quickly
And that ain't no lie
Ya get one life
Go on, take it for a ride
[Verse 2]
As I was sayin'
When you lose your way, let love be your GPS
That's right, listen to your heart
And try not to second guess your instincts
'Cause they're usually spot on the money
Keep your chin up, baby, and your outlook sunny
[Chorus]
One life, so wear it well
One go around, give 'em hell
The years, they fly by quickly
And that ain't no lie
Ya get one life
Go on, take it for a ride
[Bridge]
In times of doubt, my friend
Know it all works out in the end
Things wind up just as they should
Press on and do as you would
[Chorus]
Mercy
One life, so wear it well
One go around, give 'em hell
The years, they fly by quickly
And that ain't no lie
Ya get one life
Go on, take it for a ride
Testify
[Outro]
One life
One go around
One life
This ain't no rehearsal, baby
