Lyrics
Can't get no sleep, i've gotta worried mind,
When the money's tight, the world looks unkind,
No matter what i do, i just don't fit,
I swear to God, sometimes i just wanna quit,
i don't know, i don't know,
Chorus: Oh won't you show me which way, Lord to go?,
oh won't you give me the strenght, Lord to grow ?,
oh won't you show me wich way, Lord to go?,
still got a long way to go, still got a long way to go
Work real hard man, and what do you get?,
A tired body and a thin paycheck,
don't make no sense, it's sure a hard way to go,
so hard to beleive in, nothing to show,
i don't know, i don't know,
- Chorus-
No easy way out, just like my daddy said,
when to do like before, would only kill me dead,
don't wanna be bitter, don't wanna be mean, and i
don't wanna return to that ugly drunken scene,
i don't know, i don't know,
- Chorus-
