I Came Here To Live (Ｉ　Ｃａｍｅ　Ｈｅｒｅ　Ｔｏ　Ｌｉｖｅ) - Trace Adkins[00:00:00]

I grew up in a town where tough was a cigarette[00:00:12]

And a souped up car on a county road[00:00:17]

Nothin' much to do back then[00:00:23]

So we'd make bets[00:00:25]

On how much drink a guy could hold[00:00:29]

And I held my own[00:00:32]

Learn to hold my own[00:00:39]

Daddy works some dead-end job at the concrete plant[00:00:46]

Mama taught the Sunday bible class[00:00:52]

For eighteen years I remember thinkin'[00:00:57]

There was more to life than that[00:01:03]

So I ran the streets to beat the Devil[00:01:06]

Goin' just as fast as I could fly[00:01:11]

'Cause I came here to live[00:01:18]

I didn't come here to die[00:01:23]

Mama used to wait for me with the porch light on[00:01:31]

Worried about her little boy 'til I got home[00:01:37]

Daddy he'd say listen son[00:01:43]

But back then there wasn't much[00:01:45]

That I didn't already know[00:01:49]

I reckon I was doing close to 80[00:02:00]

When I felt the tire slip out from under me[00:02:05]

And I never set out lookin' for Jesus[00:02:11]

So I guess Jesus come lookin' for me[00:02:17]

And He found me upset down in a ditch[00:02:20]

Smokin' gas in my eyes[00:02:25]

And He said son you came here to live[00:02:31]

You didn't come here to die[00:02:37]

Sunday morning I got up and I went to church[00:02:45]

That summer I got a job and I went to work[00:02:51]

Met a girl in town put some money down[00:02:57]

On a little house with a yard[00:03:01]

Our little boy was due in September[00:03:13]

But he came early in July[00:03:19]

For eighteen days all I remember[00:03:25]

Was settin' there at his side[00:03:31]

Sayin' son open up your eyes[00:03:34]

Just open up your eyes[00:03:40]

'Cause you came here to live[00:03:45]

You didn't come here to die[00:03:51]

Son you came here to live[00:03:57]
