  • If you're tired of your life and the way that you feel
    Like a fish on a hook
    Like a bug on a dirty windshield, it's ok
    It's time to take your chips and cash them all in
    Cause it matters where you're going
    Not where you been, say hey
    Goodbye yesterday
    Well if life don't go your way
    Maybe it's time to take a break
    Hey, hey, hey

    Raise your hands in the air tonight
    Put a little love back in your life
    Get your feet up, just kick it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket
    Sunshine and bright and it's meant for us
    Life is like a ride on a party bus
    Turn the radio up and sing along with it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket

    So pack up your smile and your new flip flops
    We're headed to a heaven where the beach don't stop
    We'll dance the day and the night away
    Grab yourself a gal
    Grab yourself a fella
    Grab yourself a drink with a pink umbrella
    Goodbye yesterday
    Well when life don't go your way
    Well maybe it's time to take a nice long break

    Raise your hands in the air tonight
    Put a little love back in your life
    Get your feet up, just kick it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket
    Sunshine and bright and it's meant for us
    Life is like a ride on a party bus
    Turn the radio up and sing along with it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket

    Ouh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
    So, raise your hands in the air tonight
    Raise your hands in the air tonight, wow, oh, oh
    Push that clock and call it a day
    Say adios to the minimum wage
    Tell your boss man where he can stick it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket
    Life is so good, it's sticky sweet
    It's a carnival cotton candy treat
    All wrapped in a lollipop, lick it
    Hey, we got a one way ticket

    Ouh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
    Wow, oh, oh, oh
    Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm Writer/s: Carrie Underwood, Josh Kear, Luke Laird
