[Verse 1]
I was talkin' to a guy on a Southwest red eye flight
He said he quit countin' birthdays when he hit seventy-five
And he said hindsight, it can't be 20/20
The good Lord had it planned from the beginning
Yesterday's gonna be gone before you know it

[Chorus]
So fall in love, soak it in
Do your best and be a friend
Son, you don't need a reason to bring home a dozen roses
And have a drink, take a shot
Save a little, spend a lot
Enjoy the ride, every high, every low
Whеn you drive down one of life's roads
And takе it slow

[Verse 2]
Say you're never too busy, pick the phone up when Mama calls
Don't make her wish, say a prayer when the next star falls
You can't buy time with a pocket full of money
Laugh out loud when you think something's funny
Stand up tall for what's right
Even if you're standin' alone

[Chorus]
So fall in love, soak it in
Do your best and be a friend
Son, you don't need a reason to bring home a dozen roses
And have a drink, take a shot
Save a little, spend a lot
Enjoy the ride, every high, every low
When you drive down one of life's roads
And take it slow

[Bridge]
And when I got home that night
And I was layin' there in my bed
I promised myself I'd never forget
To live every word he said

[Chorus]
Fall in love, soak it in
Do your best and be a friend
Son, you don't need a reason to bring home a dozen roses
And have a drink, take a shot
Save a little, spend a lot
Enjoy the ride, every high, every low
When you drive down one of life's roads
And take it slow

[Outro]
Nice and slow
And take it slow
