If I were down to my last dollar Sittin' on an empty tank I'd be a dollar richer than I was back-in-the-day When I was playin' for tips and compliments And half my rent was always spent on beer
Had a thousand dollar stereo In a two hundred dollar truck A screwdriver and some cussin' Always made her start right up But I tore it up one rainy night Goin' round a curve when I hit second gear And I'm just proud to be here
Yeah, I'm just proud to be on the right side of the dirt I've been loved and I've been lost and I've been hurt I leave the hard stuff up to God Try not to worry 'bout a whole lot And I have no regrets for what it's worth I've been livin' on borrowed time for years And I'm just proud to be here
I'd like to thank my guardian angels God must have sent His best Heaven knows they worked their wings off Keepin' whiskey off my breath When I think of all I would have missed My wife and kids and all that I hold dear
Yeah, I'm just proud to be on the right side of the dirt I've been loved and I've been lost and I've been hurt I leave the hard stuff up to God Try not to worry 'bout a whole lot And I have no regrets for what it's worth I've been livin' on borrowed time for years And I'm just proud to be here [x2]
Yeah, I'm just proud to be here I'm just proud to be here.
