| My bride left me here today
|
| Said she needed to get away
|
| It’s hard to get along so she said goodbye
|
| But I try and I try and I try
|
| Yes I try and I try and I try, yup
|
| And I try to work each and every day
|
| Don’t seem worth the price that I pay
|
| The years fade away and the days go by
|
| But I try and I try and I try
|
| Yes I try and I try and I try, yup
|
| And I was just a boy that had me a dream
|
| To be a rich man, own everything
|
| Lost my love and the world got tough
|
| Mister, I’ve had enough
|
| Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
|
| Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-whoa
|
| And I drive to town on Friday night
|
| Find somebody to treat me right
|
| But all that urge is tonight
|
| But I try and I try and I try
|
| Yes I try and I try and I try, yup
|
| 'Cause some are living right, some live wrong
|
| Some are giving in, and some stay strong
|
| I keep on working hard till the day I die
|
| 'Cause I try and I try and I try
|
| Yes I try and I try and I try
|
| Oh, I try and I try and I try and I try
|
| And I try and I try and I try |
