Life Was A Play Lyrics

by Toby Keith

Lookin' back on my younger days

Life was a play and the world a stage

Lust, love and greed were in my heart

I thought I had to play each part



I'd skip school and get in a fight

Had a different girl every Friday night

But it all came out in the wash

Dad always said boys will be boys



Chorus:

Mom and dad backed me through it all

Picked me up each time I'd fall

In fact they called it growing pains

And said all kids must try such things

They kept the faith and brought me through

I still make a mistake or two

Lookin' back on my younger days

Life was a play and the world a stage



I lost my driver's license twice

For speeding and running red lights

But like all kids I lived and learned

Play with fire and you'll get burned



I bucked the system day and night

Smoked cigarettes and tried the wine

Thought breakin' rules was bein' cool

It's clear to me now I was a fool



Repeat Chorus



Yeah everything turned out ok

Life was a play and the world a stage
