I'm Tryin' - The Sheltons

This gettin' up early pulling double shifts

Gonna make an old man of me long before

I ever get rich

But I'm tryin'

It's been two years since we've finalized

I still ain't used to puttin' ex in front of wife

But I'm tryin'

Send more money right away

Is pretty much all she has to say when she

Calls these days and don't 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'

There's always a mountain in front of me

Seems I'm 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

I'm tryin'

Don't say nothin' that you can't take back

Never do anything you might regret

No don't do that

Daddy I'm 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'

There's always a mountain in front of me

Seems I'm always climbin' and fallin' and climbin'

But I keep on tryin'

There's always a mountain in front of me

Seems I'm 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 I'm tryin'
