The lyrics to “The Fall” by Cody Johnson

0:23I've been good-time drunk

0:26Enough to be bad-time sober

0:29Broke a map dot's heart when it disappeared over my shoulder

0:35I've been headstrong, rightin' dead-end wrong

0:38Good with God, but I dropped the ball

0:41Spent my whole life holdin' on

0:44But even when I fell off

0:47The ride was worth the fall

0:50The fall was worth the smiles

0:53The smiles were worth the tears

0:56Tears were worth the miles

1:00Miles were worth the pain

1:02Pain was worth it all

1:05It's all worth this life

1:08The life is worth the ride

1:11The ride is worth the fall

1:18Had some 'nowhere-near-it's'

1:21And some 'almost-was's'

1:24Left some mommas in tears, and

1:28Some daddies still cussin'

1:30'Cause what I shoulda done and what I coulda been

1:34Even knowin' now what I didn't know then

1:39I'd climb back on again

1:41The ride is worth the fall

1:44The fall was worth the smiles

1:47The smiles were worth the tears

1:51Tears were worth the miles

1:53Miles were worth the pain

1:57Pain was worth it all

1:59It's all worth this life

2:02The life is worth the ride

2:05The ride is worth the fall, oh, oh, oh!

2:18The ride was worth the fall

2:20The fall was worth the smiles

2:23The smiles were worth the tears

2:26Tears were worth the miles

2:29Miles were worth the pain

2:33Pain was worth it all

2:35It's all worth this life

2:38Life is worth the ride

2:41The ride is worth the fall, oh, oh, oh!
