Lyrics

Day by Day
words & music by ian davis ©2005

wake up in the morning, just to say I am
pull myself together cause I can

tryn? to find my radio
no it?s not in stereo
look?n for the same ol? pair of shoes

right on time? birds are singing?I ain?t tripp?n
wait?n for my favorite song

it never ends what can I say?
i?m livin? life day by day


so i get to work?.. where the man?s a jerk
feeling so alone?.. shoulda stayed at home
i know i should be proud?.. just wanna scream out loud
i think i?ve had enough??. no i can?t give up
gotta make it happen?? gotta force myself to smile


get home in the evening, just to say i did
pull myself together for the kid

tryn? to find a cigarette
mess?n with the tv set
ready for a shot of jimmy bean

right on time?. now I?m singing?I ain?t tripp?n
wait?n for my favorite show

it never ends what can I say?
i?m livin? life day by day
