Lyrics
LYRICS: I grew up in this town, out beside the railroad tracks I played football for my high school I was the star running back And I caught the record smallmouth here the day I turned 16 Just a simple way of life for an average joe like me It's quite a stretch now from how it was, living those glory days Well I ain't got much strength no more and I sleep the days away My life has veered right off the path I always thought it'd lead Cause cancer it don't care if you're an average joe like me My body may be tattered but my heart's still lovin' strong So I'll put it on the front lines while this battle wages on Some days I fight to understand but I still believe That God knows what's best for me Well I may not have all the time I want, but I've got all the time I need I've got 3 months left, at least that's what I've been told But that gives me time to wet a line and break that record I still hold And I might ask that girl out, that lives right down the street Cause life it still goes on when you're an average joe like me My body may be tattered but my heart's still lovin' strong So I'll put it on the front lines while this battle wages on Some days I fight to understand but I still believe That God knows what's best for me Well I may not have all the time I want, but I've got all the time I need It's 27 days sooner than they thought it'd be As I lay here surrounded by my family Mamma's by my side I just felt her kiss my cheek I can feel the breath of God and see a light I've never seen Just a few more steps now 'til I reach my destiny Turns out there's a place in Heaven, for an average joe like me
