Johnny Cash - Song For The Life Lyrics
I don't drink the way that I used to
lately that just ain't my style
And the hard times don't hurt like they once did
They pass more quickly like when I was wild
to a sound like the sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the life I have found
it keeps my feet on the ground
The mid summer days ain't too heavy
they just flow like a breeze through my mind
And nothing appears in a hurry
to make up for some old lost times
to a sound like the sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the life I have found
it keeps my feet on the ground
Somehow I've learned how to listen
to a sound like the sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the life I have found
it keeps my feet on the ground

Johnny Cash Song For The Life Comments
I love this song it say so much about life , how people change over time.
I love the way that different singers change the " I don't drink as much as I ought to / used to" around. Maybe they're making statements about themselves....
This is a great song no matter who sings it. Johnny does an amazing job.
As much as I've always loved Johnny Cash's music, I still love the Waylon Jennings version of this best. But Rodney Crowell is an amazing songwriter and a very good singer.
"Well, I don't drink as much as I used to
Lately it just ain't my style
And the hard times don't hurt like they ought to
They pass quickly like when I was wild
And somehow I've learned how to listen
For a sound like the sun going down
And the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
And the midsummer days sit so heavy
But don't they flow like the breeze through your mind
When nothing appears in a hurry
To make up for someone's lost time
And somehow I've learned how to listen
For a sound like the sun going down
And the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
And somehow I've learned how to listen
For a sound like the breeze dying down
And the magic the morning is bringing
There's a song for the friend I have found
She keeps my feet on the ground
She keeps my feet on the ground..."

A great cover of his then son-in-law Rodney Crowell's classic.
