Stevie Ray Vaughan - Life By The Drop Lyrics

Artist: Stevie Ray Vaughan

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Doyle Bramhall, Barbara Logan

Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago it was 'til the end
We played outside in the pouring rain
On our way up the road, we started over again

You're living a dream as though you're on top
My mind is aching, Lord, it won't stop
That's how it happens living life by the drop

Up and down that road in our worn out shoes
Talking 'bout good thangs and signing the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time

Living a dream as though you're on top
My mind is aching, Lord, it won't stop
That's how it happens living life by the drop

No waste of time, we're alive today
Turning up the past, there's no easier way
Time's been between us, a means to an end
God, it's good to be here walking together, my friend

Living a dream, my mind starts thinking
That's how it happens living life by the drop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
