Gettin' on & Givin' In
Yeah Jill and I
Spun off 579
Sliding just by Northwood's edge
We were barely halfway to Cleveland
When the fate dogs turned their heads
I heard them barking, Lord
And saw them chomping at the bit
As the sky swung madly backward, we were
Gettin' on & givin' in
You know, I've boiled it down
I find I'm often found
Half-living, while the other half's dreams
And when I was a boy
They never taught me that I
Was reaching far outside my means
So I chased some things I couldn't catch
It seems I ain't stopped chasin' since
But I'm ready now for settling down
Gettin' on & givin' in
Yeah, I have those days
Where the thoughts I keep
Ain't the kind you oughta share
Then there's other days
When them hidden words
Sound much better in open air
So I let out what's been held up
Try and ease my worried head
But it's just those same old words about
Gettin' on & givin' in
So come find me in the open
I keep nothing now, it's right
Just take whatever's shining
And try and hold it through the night
'Cause there's no point in clenching knuckles
Pickin' which side oughta win
You just let go, you just walk by
You get on, you give in
You get on you get on you get on you get on you give in
You get on you get on you get on you get on you give in
You give in
You give in
