	Richard Yandle was sitting at the Gypsy coffeehouse in Tulsa, writing the 1st verse. He asked me to put music to it, I encouraged and collaborated, and a couple hours later, this rough mix was came out.

	Story Behind the Song You'd have to listen to the song and find out what it means to you... For me, it's about doing one's best, while recognizing human limitations. You'd have to ask Richard what HE had in mind when he started. As was said, this is a rough mix done just after the song was written. Lyrics Journey through the spirit gate And open your minds clear. Realize your destiny, fate, And forget about those fears. Clean the table for your next meal, And fold your blankets right. Remember how it makes you feel When you see (look at) the stars at night. CHORUS: When you finish all these things And you begin to understand Open up your heart and sing I am only a man. Go work your fingers to the bone Every single day So that when you finally make it home You can watch your children play. Go make right what you’ve done wrong, Do it with a grin. Listen close as I sing this song Living life... is not a sin. REPEAT CHORUS Go chase a comet by its tail And whistle a Dixie tune Climb aboard and set your sail I’ll meet up with you real soon Drink the wine of your life And savor each drop Forget in your mind (you just might have) That you ever wanted to stop. REPEAT CHORUS Ride your horses like the wind And climb the mountain top Think about how your life has been And pray it never stops
