Jake Owen- Startin' With Me Lyrics

[Crowsvilleful]

I messed up alot in my past, and I have done alot of growing up since then which is why I dont dwell on the past anymore there's no point in dwelling on it which is why I live by the saying Carpe Diem which mean seize the day in Latin, but it still hurts knowing that I let both my grandma's down cause I started smoking again and I couldn't keep my dad off the drugs so he's sitting in prison again till his parole hearing in 2014.

[CWALKIN420]

Oops... " livin" a little higher on the hog"

[CWALKIN420]

It's " livin' a little on the hog"

[fighter2h45]

who ever thought he killed his dad is dumb

[CowboyTroyPC]

love the song. check out my cover of it, it aint perfect but not bad at all

[IslandJaime]

I just screwed up a wonderful, loving, healthy, beautiful relationship with the man of my dreams, my better half. If there is one piece of advice I can give anyone it would be to cherish those that you love. Slow down, show patience and understanding, overuse "I love you." People are the only thing in the world that really matter. Anything worth having is worth working for. If you have something you love, take care of it, honor it, treasure it.

[pepsi1569]

this song makes me think about my life and how i'm living it and i don't wanna live me life like this anymore my new years resolution is to change

[austin87092]

but the faster you go the less you care about your mistakes its when you slow down you think about them trust me i no all about that

[ArmyMom21B]

I think what he's saying is that instead of trying to change others you should look at yourself first. It's not always the other person that is wrong, sometimes it's ourselves. No, we shouldn't do things we regret because we all make mistakes, but if you do it once it's a mistake then second time it's a choice.

[mmillner81]

Thumbs up if you think the people who say "I don't regret anything in my life" or "You shouldn't regret anything you've done" are full of it. This song shows everyone regrets moments in there life, and that nobody is perfect.

[ARCSK8R1]

i let woman that i loved slip through my fingers

[cbstein11887]

Well I didn't pawn grandpa's guitar or have a dad to swing at, but otherwise (sigh)

[geegleman76]

[furbyj6]

[redcherrydreamx3]

[bigsexy873]

[meme411ify]

I SAW HIM IN CONSERT AND HE SHOOK MY HAND

[CorruptCleric]

good damn song

[LoveJustinBieber155]

This reminds me of my brother!!!

[pumba3905]

@LoveJustinBieber155 this makes me think of my sister. She wasnt the smartest teenager, but she is just now realizing her mistakes and its too late to change them.

[dixiedolly12449]

@camraman67 right. its like with no relationship, no strings attached, only once.

[trevsgirl91]

No disrespect to Jake Owen at all...I can't wait to see him at the Keith Urban concert in August...However..this song is depressing. :// Kinda defeats the whole purpose of the whole "you are who you are" No regrets thing. . . Haha..Juss sayin! ;)

[Shemegan2012]

i had a one night stand with my best frinds little sister....yea then we got in a relationship babe! So happy

[Lspurls18]

saw him at the sears center near chicago last night. hes awesome

[daddysgurl9181]

this song is 4 my dad and my brother big time

[FaRmErSdAuGhTeRhAlEy]

i wish mom had wrung my neck when she caught me with those ciggarettes! true datt! im 12 for gods sake!

[josephhallgirl]

@FaRmErSdAuGhTeRhAlEy 12!? Oh, hun... C'mon, that's not something you wanna start.

[FaRmErSdAuGhTeRhAlEy]

@josephhallgirl i agree, and its something hard to quit. im trying though.

[josephhallgirl]

@FaRmErSdAuGhTeRhAlEy That's good.

[MrWhitetailbuckdeer]

It's hog not hall....I'd be livin a little higher on the hog....The higher you are on the hog the better the meat

[thedarksaviour24]

its hall not hog

[Shepps4wd]

@thedarksaviour24 no its hog.

[thedarksaviour24]

@Shepps4wd hall ive known this song ever since it came out its hall

[justinplass]

it really seems like the small mistakes someone makes while their young always ends up being a big problem when the get older and will stick with them for the rest of their life.

[polaradude]

Kinda sums me up.

[a2thethLee]

Wouldn't he go to jail for at least 25 years for killing his father..?

[boyceavenuefan56]

@a2thethLee Lol he didnt kill his father:)

he says that he took a swing meaning that he tried to punch him.

sometime after he did that he died

[a2thethLee]

@boyceavenuefan56 Ohh, lol.

I thought he meant that he punched his father and somehow he died from it, making it his last Christmas ever.

[DanielPoshard]

@boyceavenuefan56 probably a heart attack?



[boyceavenuefan56]

@DanielPoshard maybe the song doesnt really say how he died.

[southernfeelings]

@DanielPoshard Does it matter? 

[southsidecastro]

@a2thethLee He is talking about the Christmas being his last one

he regrets fighting on a family holiday :/

[rwack7890]

@a2thethLee it means it would be his last christmas

[MRCHASERSON]

@a2thethLee hes just saying he wish he didnt hit him because it would be his last christmas

[pickupman121]

@a2thethLee probably it was the last time he saw him

[Iloveyouubooboo]

@a2thethLee He didn't kill his father let alone anyone. The songs probably not even technically "Real" to his life. I honestly don't even think he wrote it. it's just another song. and an amazing one at that. haha

[scobby63]

@a2thethLee hes saying that that he died soon aft

er that

[sharmieangel]

You've done well, but allow me to interpret the Southern in a couple of places: 1) I had a one night 'stand' with my best friend's baby sister... and 2) 'that' didn't make no sense at all, I'd be living a little higher on the 'hog'...

Awesome song. Thank you for providing the lyrics for us. Take Care. xx

[sethsparks20]

amazing song...just amazing

[fatgirlsrsneaky]

its higher on the hog not hall...

[mirandadeaton11]

"I took a swing at my old man one Christmas.I never dreamed it would be his last." Made me tear up. 8'(

[heidikissinger123]

this so reminds me of the crap ive done.........

[nickjonasfreak143]

this is a very good, other than he says one night stand* not stayin:) but it was a very good video:)

[brieanne100]

btw it says i'd be living a little higher on the hog :)

[alwayzNforever1122]

we never know what we have until it's gone.. sometimes we can be a little selfish but regret it later on. i know if i could start over i'd sure do a lot of things different.

[jasonmc618]

It's "on the hog"

[ashleyarcher11]

i love this song to

[amberb678]

isnt it a little higher on the hog? i thought thats how the saying went you might check into that.

[13jmcgill]

This song kinda describes my life.. :/ Makes me think, also makes me cry.

[patches7111]

@13jmcgill it does the same to me.

[slyrfn1986]

Hard to realize sometimes the mistakes we're makin but when you're livin life in the fast lane we tend to forget the better thats around us and don't realize it til its gone...Specially lettin that girl slip through your fingers

[poisonsoul18]

@slyrfn1986 no way in hell im letting this girl slip through mine :P

[redneckgunshooter]

@slyrfn1986 yall got that right

[anthonyrhoneycutt]

Pretty good, but coming from an ole country boy from Kentucky, one of the lines is written down wrong. It should be living a little bit higher on the hog. Now that's country!! Great song!

[XXchickens]

very good job =] i saw him in concert last saterday xD he was awesome as hell xD he looked so good in those jeans xD

[Witherspoonjohn]

omfg thank you

[eric84555]

[iheartjonesd2]

[Cstars1012]

so sad, but I love it. I mostly listen to faster songs nless I'm in the mood for a slow one, but I can listen to this one all the time! I can't get anough of Jake Owen or his music!!!

[MitchelMussoLUVER8]
