Question
I am looking for the male artist and the name of this song.  In the video that I remember a man runs out of the house leaving his wife and little boy I believe, and hits a tree with a red convertible.  The song goes something like I'm going to live like its the last day of my life. Can any one please help me?

Answer
Hi Tonia!  I think the song you're looking for is Sammy Kershaw's "One Day Left To Live."  I love Sammy Kershaw, such a great voice.  I've included lyrics for you below and a link to the video.  Hope this helps!

Artist: Kershaw Sammy
Song: One Day Left To Live
Album: Labor Of Love

I rolled out of bed grabbed a cup of caffeine this morning
Walked out the door didn't even kiss you goodbye
Hurrying to work, a car pulled out no warnin'
In an instant it all flashed before my eyes

And I'm gonna live the rest of my life
Like I got one day left to live
One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm startin' all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live

What a close call
Could of been all she wrote me
Think I'll turn this car around and head back home
There's a reason to be learned in this it showed me
Take nothing for granted in a second it can all be gone

But I'm gonna live the rest of my life
Like I got one day left to live
One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm startin' all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live

One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm startin' all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live

I can answer just about any question about lyrics or the artists who recorded the songs--80s and 90s country especially. I don't watch many new videos, but the older the video question, the more likely I am to be able to answer it.

Experience

I've been a country music fan for all of my 20+ years! I somehow have a knack for being able to remember all the words to all the songs (and who sang them for the most part) even though I can't carry a tune to save my life!

Education/Credentials
Juris Doctor. (So if I can't remember an answer off the top of my head, I have the research skills to figure it out!)
