Gettin' By
Getting'By -Jackie Greene
The game must be loaded cause I never win
These things never did treat me good
But keep the fire warm dear <1940,-159,0>and I’ll see you again
Lord knows that someday I should
It’s a strange old feeling these passing lane blues
But <190,-219,0>it’s <-29,930,0>nothing I ain’t never felt before
You nailed down my conscience and you forced me to choose
And <190,-59,0>my soul I let slip through your door
And I’ll be doing just fine oh fine
No matter how hard I don’t try
And if it’s raining on the fourth of July
I believe I’ll be gettin’by
The cheaper the ride the cheaper the thrill
You can’t trust the shadow through the curtain
But <180,-279,0>if <-99,250,0>I took you for granted would you send me the bill
There’s one thing that I know for certain
All I’ve got is this time on my hands
And time oh time it’s a breakin’
Just one lost memory and the price you demand
I loved you but I could have been mistaken
And I’ll be doing just fine oh fine
No matter how hard I don’t try
And if it’s raining on the fourth of July
I believe I’ll be gettin’by
Time makes you older that’s what they say）
I come to find out it ain’t so
Time makes you colder and farther away
And farther and farther you go and I’ll be doing just fine oh fine no matter how hard I don’t try and if it’s raining on the fourth of July I believe I’ll be gettin’by
