STAYING BURNT OUT ALL THE TIME
WELL THATS A GOOD WAY FOR YOU TO LOOSE YOUR MIND
STAYING LOW FOR TOO DAMN LONG
WELL THATS ENOUGH TO WANNA GET HIGH
IM NOT SAYING WHATS RIGHT OR WRONG
SOME FOLKS NEED A LITTLE HELP GETTING ALONG
I CANT JUDGE LORD IVE BEEN STONED
I KNOW JESUS KNOWS
AND I GET BY
AND I GET BY
WE ALL GET BY
BY THE GRACE OF GOD
WE ALL GET BY
YEAH MY MOMMA INTRODUCED ME TO GOD AS A CHILD
YEAH YOU KNOW MY DADDY DOES HIS LIVIN A LITTLE LESS MILD
HE RATHER SING THOSE GOSPEL SONGS ON A FRONT PORCH ANYWAY
MY BABY SISTER
SHE MARRIED A MAN ON THE OTHER SIDE WHERE DAD AND I LAND
WE LAUGH AND JOKE
AND GIVE HIM HELL
BUT HE LOVES THAT LITTLE GIRL
AND THEY GET BY
AND THEY GET BY
WE ALL GET BY
BY THE GRACE OF GOD
WE ALL GET BY
AND EVERYBODIES WAITING
ON THAT DAY WHEN ALL IS RIGHT
AND WE STILL GOT EACH OTHER
TO MAKE IT THROUGH ANOTHER NIGHT
AND EVERYBODIES WAITING FOR THE TIME THAT ALL IS RIGHT
WE STILL GOT EACH OTHER TO MAKE IT THROUGH ANOTHER NIGHT
THIS CORNER BAR IS NOT A HOUSE OF SIN
ITS A PLACE
WHERE ALL OF US FIT IN
IVE SEEN THE SAME FACES SATURDAY NIGHT
AS I HAVE ON SUNDAY MORNIN
AND BROTHER JOHNS THERE SIPPIN HIS DRINK
YOU KNOW THAT HE DONT CARE WHAT THE OTHERS MIGHT THINK
HE LAUGHS AND JOKES AND FINDS IT FUNNY
THAT THE OTHERS ALL DRINK ALONE AT HOME
HE GETS BY
AND HE GETS BY
WE ALL GET BY
BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE ALL GET BY
STAYIN BURNT OUT ALL THE TIME
WELL THATS A GOOD WAY FOR YOU TO LOOSE YOUR MIND
WELL STAYING LOW FOR TOO DAMN LONG
WELL THATS ENOUGH TO WANNA GET HIGH
