Cover art for The Life lyrics by Kenny Chesney

It start's off, "It was early one mornin, playa del carmen, that's when i first met Jose.

Then later the lyrics are. He was barefoot cerveza in hand.

It is a really good song though, one of my favorites off the lucky old sun cd. I hope to one day live the life of Jose and just take it easy and love my wife and kids and not have to worry about a hectic life.
