Doing Life With Me

It ain't easy putting up with

A road dog with a cup with

A little Jack in it

You talk about the backseat

I don't know, don't ask me

How she sat in it

She carried my burdens and paid my bail

Put a Tennessee breeze in my Carolina sail

And set me free

I don't pray much anymore

For this old troubadour's

Happiness, wishes, wants, and needs

End of my ropes, hopes and dreams

Spend my living giving thanks

For the ships I never sank

Every big, every little in the every day things

The notes and the words and the songs I sing

To the ones doing life with me

Coulda easily said goodbye to

This runaway train you're tied to

I know I don't get it

Baby how you roll with it

The fists and the fights and the scars of the battle

The ups and the downs of the judges gavel

How'd you wind up in my unravel?

I don't pray much anymore

For this old troubadour's

Happiness, wishes, wants, and needs

End of my ropes, hopes and dreams

Spend my living giving thanks

For the ships I never sank

Every big, every little in the every day things

The notes and the words and the songs I sing

To the ones doing life with me

You're my faith in the grace every sunrise brings

Set me free

I don't pray much anymore

For this old troubadour's

Happiness, wishes, wants, and needs

End of my ropes, hopes and dreams

Spend my living giving thanks

For the ships I never sank

You're my faith in the grace every sunrise brings

Every big, every little in the every day things

The notes and the words and the songs I sing

To the ones doing life with me
