After Little Texas disbanded in 1997, Rushlow began a solo career. His first recording was the musical track "Totally Committed" on comedian Jeff Foxworthy's 1998 album of the same name. Two years later, Rushlow signed to Atlantic Records, recording one album and charting a Top Ten single on the country charts titled "She Misses Him". When Atlantic closed its country division in 2001, Rushlow formed a six-piece band called Rushlow, which charted two singles and recorded one album for Lyric Street Records in 2003.
Rushlow and his cousin Doni Harris (a former member of Rushlow) founded the country music duo Rushlow Harris in 2006. This duo charted two singles on the country charts that year.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Think I had a bad dream, 'cause I think I had a hard night
'Cause you know it's been a crazy life
So I jump into the shower and it feels like my whole body's cryin' and it has been
'Cause I had a bad dream, and I think I really had a hard night
'Cause you know it's been a crazy life
Yeah but that's alright, I don't feel sad
I look outside, the weather's not bad
And I think I'm gonna be all right
I think I'm gonna do just fine
And I think I'm gonna be okay
I think I'm gonna make it through
This crazy life
This crazy life
Old lady walkin' cross the street,
I try to help her, but she pushes me away
And I think to myself she must be so scared, and I think she must be so tired
From livin' in this crazy life
Yeah but that's alright, I don't feel sad
AI look outside the weather's not bad
I know these times are the best I've ever had
And I think I'm gonna be all right
I think I'm gonna do just fine
And I think I'm gonna be okay
I think I'm gonna make it through
This crazy life
This crazy life
Now I'm not tryin' to hid what's real
I know sometimes you get a raw deal
But life is short and time is cruel
But I can't help seein' the glass half full
So I lay my poor, tired head on the pillow again and I pray to God
Maybe we all can sleep well, and maybe we can dream big
'Cause you know it's gonna be a crazy life
Yeah, but that's alright, now don't feel sad
Just look outside the weather's not bad
And know these times are the best we've ever had
And I think we're gonna be all right
I think we're gonna do just fine
And I think we're gonna be okay
I think we're gonna make it through
This crazy life
This crazy life
This crazy life
This crazy life
All right
