Lyrics
Grandpa dropped outta school in the fifth grade
Grandma barely made it past the eighth
So maybe it's alright if I only made it two weeks
At Oklahoma State
The kinda learnin' that I'm lookin' for
Ain't written out on a whiteboard
I'm takin' life lessons
Grow my hair too long, become a vagabond
And do some wild living
No, I ain't no preacher, but there ain't no better teacher
Than a big old slice of humble pie
On the road to life to find what I've been missin'
I'm takin' life lessons
All that money from tuition fees
Could've been spent on gasoline
Get me from Stillwater to somewhere
Invest some sense in me
Pour some concrete, play guitar
Meet some strangers at a bar
Make a little change to get by
I'm takin' life lessons
Grow my hair too long, become a vagabond
And do some wild living
No, I ain't no preacher, there ain't no better teacher
Than a big old slice of humble pie
On the road to life to find what I've been missin'
I'm takin' life lessons
I make a buck, fix my truck
Fuck around and fall in love
Shake a hand, make a friend
Bring a heart back to life again
I'm takin' life lessons
Grow my hair too long, become a vagabond
And do some wild living
No, I ain't no preacher, but there ain't no better teacher
Than a big old slice of humble pie
On the road to life to find what I've been missin'
I'm takin' life lessons
Life lessons
Life lessons
Life lessons
