He said crickets catch more brim
But worms catch more bass
And it really ain't them brand new shoes
That make you run so fast
He said you better finish
Buddy even if its last
Life has a way of
Teaching us these things

Chorus:

And he said this hurts me
More then it hurts you
But its the only
Way to find the truth
You see life ain't no rehearsal boy
You only get one chance
And you'll learn that
By the seat of your pants


He said sometimes hunting
Ain't all about the kill
Sometimes that woman of your dreams
Can be a little too real
Sometimes you gotta go to work
No matter how you feel
Life has a way of
Teaching us these things

Chorus:

And he said this hurts me
More then it hurts you
But its the only
Way to find the truth
You see life ain't no rehearsal boy
You only get one chance
And you'll learn that
By the seat of your pants
