[Verse 1] Boots on the porch step Sun on the split-rail fence Mama’s coffee gone cold But the day makes perfect sense I’ll take the long dirt road And I’ll take my time With a pocket full of prayer And a heart that’s still alive [Pre-Chorus] If the creek runs fast I’ll jump right in If the hills get steep I’ll climb again [Chorus] Live it up, live it up Right here, right now Raise that cup, raise that cup Till the stars come out Sing it loud, sing it loud Let the good days run Live it up, live it up When the work is done [Verse 2] Saw a blue jay flash by Over Charlie’s old barn Got a flat tire smiling On the side of the farm Met a laughing stranger Shared my last peach pie Learned the richest folks Are the ones who know why [Pre-Chorus] Why the grass feels good Beneath my feet Why a weary soul Can still believe [Chorus] Live it up, live it up Right here, right now Raise that cup, raise that cup Till the stars come out Sing it loud, sing it loud Let the good days run Live it up, live it up When the work is done [Bridge] When the road goes dark And the rain rolls in I’ll keep one more song And I’ll start again Got a little mud On my Sunday shoes But I’ve got this one life And I’m gonna use it too [Final Chorus] Live it up, live it up Right here, right now Raise that cup, raise that cup Till the stars come out Sing it loud, sing it loud Let the good days run Live it up, live it up When the work is done
