Somebody Paints the Wall - Live
If my old truck was a horse
I'd have to shoot it
Lord the day my ship came in
I was waiting for a train
Everytime I get a grip, I always lose it
I can't find the sunshine for the rain
And you know I'm always saying I'm sorry
But you stand by me through it all
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Everytime I think I'm off and runnin
I'm barely up to a crawl
Everytime I get a legup on the ladder of success
I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory
I was up for a promotion
But the boss says little brother got the call
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Everytime I think I'm off and runnin
I'm barely up to a crawl
Everytime I get a leg up
On the ladder of success, I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory
I was up for a promotion
But the boss says little brother got the call
Seems like everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody always paints the wall
I'd have to shoot it
Lord the day my ship came in
I was waiting for a train
Everytime I get a grip, I always lose it
I can't find the sunshine for the rain
And you know I'm always saying I'm sorry
But you stand by me through it all
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Everytime I think I'm off and runnin
I'm barely up to a crawl
Everytime I get a legup on the ladder of success
I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory
I was up for a promotion
But the boss says little brother got the call
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Everytime I think I'm off and runnin
I'm barely up to a crawl
Everytime I get a leg up
On the ladder of success, I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory
I was up for a promotion
But the boss says little brother got the call
Seems like everytime I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
Seems everytime I make my mark
Somebody always paints the wall
