Lyrics

I'm Just Trying to Get Through the Day

Oooooh, yeah....................

Downtown again. I'm running 'round again.
I just can't seem to stay on my feet.
Up and down like a clown life's kicked me all around
And dumped me right on out in the streets.

(Bridge)
It's 5 am.
Where ya been?
She closed her eyes and handed me a key...

(Chorus)
I'm just trying to get through the day.
I'm just trying to get through the night.
I don't know how they can't see
I've got the world on me
I don't know if I'm wrong or I'm right.
I'm just trying to get through the day and get through the night.


All around, my dreams come tumbling down.
Sometimes this whiskey is my only friend.
Gone astray and yesterday just seems so far away
I close my eyes and here we go again.

(Bridge)
It's time to go.
And I don't know
Tomorrow just exactly where I'll be...

(Chorus)

And I don't know, where else to go.

I'm just trying to get through the day.
I'm just trying to ....................

(Chorus)
I'm just trying to get through the day.
I'm just trying to get through the night ( 3 X)
I'm just trying to get through the day and get through the night.
