Once I fall in love then I`ll be happy But then you fall in love and there`s still a hole Once I get some money it`ll all be easyBut then you get that money, you still feel broke
Once I get a little older, I won`t worry Then you get older and it don`t feel like it should I`m thinking once I learn to grow right where I`m planted Maybe that`s when life starts getting good
Once I get a car that don`t stall in the morning I can make it anywhere I want, just wait But I can see it right now sitting in my driveway Afraid if I take it out, I`ll chip the paint
Once I get a house that I can hang my hat on I bet I`ll want to build a bigger one if I could, yeah I`m thinking, once I learn to grow right where I`m planted Maybe that`s when life starts getting good
Oh, getting good Getting good Life starts getting good I`m thinking maybe that`s when life starts getting good
(That`s when life starts getting good, oh)
I`m afraid of both my parents dying I call my dad, he answers right away And I didn`t hear a word `cause I was thinking About what hasn`t happened yet but will someday
And we hang up the phone before I know it I`m crying over the conversation my fear took I`m thinking once I learn to soak up every moment I`ll realise my life`s already good
Already good Already good Life`s already good I`ll realise my life`s already good Thank God that my life`s already good
