Danny Gokey - Life On Ya Lyrics

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
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
It might get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya, on ya, said on ya
Gotta get a little life on ya

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 further
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
Gotta get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya
Said on ya, said on ya
On ya, on ya

Gotta get a little life on ya
Little life on ya
You got to live a little
Breathe stronger
Live harder, yeah
Oh, you gotta breathe harder
Love stronger, yeah
