A Little Better Lyrics

Now I can sing you the story line
And if you like my story fine
But ain't none of the glory mineSee my life was a lonely one
And I was still mama's only son
With no idea what I'm gon' becomeAnd I didn't have long to know
That you don't have to be grown to go
I could've died so long beforeThen I finally saw the sign
And I made it on down the line
One step at a timeI feel better, I can smile at it now
I feel better, oh better
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on meOh, it's probably plain to see
That I got a whole lot of pain in me
And it will always remain in meSo cold it's a crying shame
Yet here I am trying to gain
'Cause I refuse to die in vainThe circumstances put soul in me
And there ain't no holding me
I've got a heart made of gold in meCan you believe this is where I've been?

And when adversity calls again
I'll deal with it thenI feel better, I can laugh at it now
I feel better, oh better
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on meAh ah, yeah, um, oh, ohI said everything's fine, you can take your time
What would be on your mind
If you knew you was dying?
I would wanna just feel this one more timeI said everything's fine, take your time
What would be on your mind
If you knew you was dying?
I would wanna just feel this one more timeAlright
I want to thank you morning sun
I want to thank you lonely girl
Now I know I'm not the only oneI want to thank you friendly ghost
When all the cards were close
It seems like you cared the mostI want to thank you mom and dad
For hurting me so bad
But you're the best I ever had
I want to thank you
