If you're thinking that my life 
is a hoot and a holler 
From the start of the day 
to the dark of the night
And that it's ringing like a bell 
That you only wanna follow
Gotta trust me when I say
I'm just trying to get it right

Still I think about myself 
As a lucky old dreamer
And if you're asking me to tell
Is it worth what I paid 
You're going to hear me say:
Hell yeah it is

And I say it loud
I loved it all 
and I'm not too proud
I freed my soul
Just let it fly
Hell yeah this crazy life around me
It confuses and confounds me 
But it's all the life I've got
Until I die
Hell yeah it is

If you're asking for my time
Isn't much left to give you
Been around a good long while
So I gotta say it fast
Time is all we'll ever need
But it's gotta have a meaning
You be careful how it's spent
Cause it isn't going to last

I hear you wondering out loud
Are you ever going to make it
Will you ever work it out
Will you ever take a chance
And just believe you can
Hell yeah you will

You're going to be okay
You might get lost
But then you'll find a way
Don't go alone
Can't be afraid
Hell yeah this life is here
and it's made for living
And loves a gift that's made for giving
You give it all away and have it still
And hell yeah you will

I've been livin' in a bowl
With a lot of people staring
With my feet on shaky ground 
And my head up in the sky
But it's where I want to be
It's a life that's made for caring
Gotta a song to pass the day
And a girl to share the night
So if they ask you when I'm gone

Was it everything he wanted
And when he had to travel on
Did he know he'd be missed
You can tell them this:
Hell yeah he did

He saw it all
He walked the line
Never had to crawl
He cried a bit 
But not for long
Hell yeah

He found the life that he was after
Filled it up with love and laughter
Finally gotta it right and made it fit
Hell yeah he did
