[Verse 1: Alli Walker]
I used to say I'd never
'Cause I know better
Than to raise my voice like you did
Every time you lose it
You were doing your best
Two kids, no rest
Yeah, I'm seeing it now from your side
I think you did alright

[Chorus: Alli Walker]
Don't we all need a little grace?
Another one more, try again
A lot of things you woulda changed
If you woulda known what you know now back then
Getting older makes you wiser
Doesn't mean you won't make mistakes
I shouldn't be so hard on you
It's your first time living too
It's your first time living too

[Verse 2: Gretchen Wilson]
I was working two jobs
Just trying to make ends meet
And I had you all way too young
Just a baby having babies
You were a handful
Whеn you turned fifteen
Then when you mеt a boy and moved away
I lost a piece of me
[Chorus: Gretchen Wilson & Alli Walker, Gretchen Wilson]
Don't we all need a little grace?
Another one more, try again
A lot of things you woulda changed
If you woulda known what you know now back then
Getting older makes you wiser
Doesn't mean you won't make mistakes
I shouldn't be so hard on you
It's your first time living too

[Bridge: Gretchen Wilson, Alli Walker, both]
The first time's hard to get through
Oh, first time down this road
First time learning as we go

[Chorus: Alli Walker, Gretchen Wilson, both]
Don't we all need a little grace?
Another one more, try again
A lot of things I woulda changed
If I woulda known what I know now back then
Getting older makes you wiser
Doesn't mean you won't make mistakes
I shouldn't be so hard on you
It's your first time living too
It's my first time living too
