Chase Rice - You Ain't Livin' Yet Lyrics

He said, "Boy, you ever been outside of this town?
Ever thought about gettin' out to the west coast?
Or down to Mexico?"
I said, "No"
I just stood there pumpin' his gas
While he rambled on somethin' 'bout Paris, France
And the Northern Lights
And how they dance at night
And how I'm missin' out on life
He said, "You ain't livin' yet"
Yeah, that's when I said

"If you've never snuck a kiss in a hayloft
Drove your pickup truck with your shirt off
Or let the rooster crow be your alarm clock
Then you ain't livin' yet
You've never thrown a line out from a jon boat
Got a little sideways on a dirt road
A little choked up on a Marlboro
Then you ain't livin' yet
Nah, you ain't livin' yet"

I popped the hood on his Cadillac
And checked the oil
While he just laughed and said, "You're right
I've never tried anything like that before"
And I said
"I can tell by the Mardi Gras beads
And the stack of road maps in your back seat
You've been everywhere
But man I swear
This place is different than anywhere"
I told him, "You ain't livin' yet
Now tell me this"

"You ever put a buckshot through a stop sign?
Felt the burn from your first sip of moonshine?
Revved your engine up at a red light?
Then you ain't livin' yet
You ever thrown your voice out at a tractor pull?
Seen a hot girl ride a mechanical bull?
Poured your heart out on a bar stool?
Then you ain't livin' yet"

He said, "Son, you've got me thinkin'
Thinkin' I might just stick around
By the way you talk, there's a world I've never seen
Inside of this town
Should let me take a look around
And trade this Cadillac for a step side
Grab an RC Cola and Moonpie
And just soak up this country life
'Cause I ain't livin' yet
You're right man, when you said
That you ain't livin' yet
'Cause I ain't livin' yet"
Yeah, you ain't livin' yet
