Every Drop of Water - Ricky Skaggs, J.D. Sumner and The Stamps

Life is kinda like a roller coaster

Up and down over and over again until it ends

The way I figure it’s all grist for the mill

There’s a lesson to learn from every hard spill we take

And there are no mistakes

We’re all diamonds in the rough, we’ll shine soon enough

It’s the struggles in this life that make you strong

Embrace the good times and the bad keep in mind when you’re sad

Both tears of joy and sorrow lead us home

Every drop of water shapes the stone

Now you’d never know it be looking at me now

But not long ago I was down for the count and scared

Didn’t think I had a prayer

But I found the faith to get over that mountain

It took a while but nobody’s countin' anyway and I’m here to say

We’re all diamonds in the rough, we’ll shine soon enough

It’s the struggles in this life that make you strong

Embrace the good times and the bad keep in mind when you’re sad

Both tears of joy and sorrow lead us home

Every drop of water shapes the stone

There’s a masterpiece in every heart an ever changing work of art

We’re all diamonds in the rough we’ll shine soon enough

Let tears of joy and sorrow lead you home

Every drop of water shapes the stone

Life is kinda like a roller coaster up and down over and over again…
