Livin' On Borrowed Time Lyrics


Well I'm swimmin' in debt and the money's all gone
I ain't got nothin' I can call my own
Work my fingers to the blood and bone
For a big disappointment when my paycheck comesIf I only had a little I could do just fine
I could put a down payment on some peace of mind
But I'm hangin' at the end of a credit line
Lord, I'm just livin' on borrowed timeMy truck's financed through the Union Bank
But I don't have enough to even fill the tank
I'd take you for a drive, girl, but I just can't
'Cause the damned old motor won't even crankOur trailer's plenty big if we lived outside
But I can't swing the payments on a double wide
You better hold a place in that welfare line
'Cause I'm just livin' on borrowed timeYeah, if it comes real cheap but it don't come free
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
They say it brings trouble, havin' money to burn
I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learn, Lord, LordYeah, if it comes real cheap but it don't come free
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
They say it brings trouble, havin' money to burn

I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learnYeah, I bought my wife a little diamond ring
Her mom said "Hon, can't even see that thing"
It'll be paid off when I'm sixty five
If I'm lucky enough to still be aliveEven if I was to up and pass away
My family doesn't have enough to dig my grave
No tombstone just an old wood sign
Sayin' he was just livin' on borrowed timeOut there swingin' from a credit line
Lord I'm just livin' on borrowed time
Lord I'm just livin' on borrowed time

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
James Travis Tritt (born February 9, 1963) is an American country music singer. He now resides in Hiram, Georgia off Travis Tritt Highway.

Tritt was born in Marietta, Georgia to James and Gwen Tritt. At age 3, he received his first guitar from his father. By 22, he had been through two divorces and had committed himself entirely to his music career. He has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1992. Today, he and wife Theresa have three children: Tyler Reese (born February 18, 1998), Tristan James (born June 16, 1999) and Terian Nathaniel (born November 20, 2003).

His breakthrough came with his first album, Country Club, from which three singles were released, as well as his first No. 1 hit with "Help Me Hold On". His second album, It's All About To Change, produced two top 3 hits including: "Anymore", "The Whiskey Ain't Workin'", and "Here's A Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)". The song "Bible Belt" was used in the movie, My Cousin Vinny, and, for which, he composed alternate lyrics exclusively for the use of the film.

Tritt has released a trilogy of music videos describing the tale of two paralyzed war veterans: Mac Singleton and his friend Al. In the video for "Tell Me I was Dreaming", Tritt plays Singleton, a wheelchair bound veteran who tries to rescue his pregnant wife Annie from slipping off a boat, subsequently hitting her head on the side of the dock. She dies, but their baby, Annie, survives. The third video shows what happened with Singleton and his daughter after the second video.

Tritt's latest album, My Honky Tonk History, showcases a wide range of styles, from love ballads to energetic footstompers.
