This gettin up early, pulling double shifts,
Gonna make an old man of me long before I ever get rich.
But Im tryin
Its been two years since weve finalized,
I still aint used to puttin ex in front of wife.
But Im tryin.
Send more money right away, is pretty much all she has to say when she
Calls these days. And dont you be late
But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on tryin
And all I can be is all I can be and I keep on tryin
Theres always a mountain in front of me,
Seems Im always climbin and fallin and climbin
But I keep on tryin
I remember daddy sayin keep your eye on the ball, run like hell, play to win,
Get up when you fall
Im tryin
Dont say nothin that you cant take back
Never do anything you might regret
No dont do that
Daddy Im tryin
Know the difference between heaven and hell
Go easy on the bottle be hard on yourself
And I know he meant well
But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on tryin
And all I can be is all I can be and I keep on tryin
Theres always a mountain in front of me,
Seems Im always climbin and fallin and climbin
But I keep on tryin
Theres always a mountain in front of me
Seems Im always climbin and stumblin
And then fallin
And then climbin
But I keep on tryin
This gettin up early pullin double shifts
Gonna make an old man of me
Long before I ever get rich
But Im tryin
