Lyrics of Life on ya

Sunday morning, all dressed for church
Took a muddy road shortcut
Showed up all covered in dirt
Daddy took one look
About to blow his top
I remember grandma saying, "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 beautiful 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,
Might get a little dirty

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

Girl, do you remember?
When we first met
Life hadn't had a chance
To throw all it had at us yet
Now it's 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 farther
Gotta live 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!
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

You got to breathe harder
Love stronger, yeah
