Why Do I Even Try?
They said hey man just be yourself
Don't mind what people say
But I said I don't like The Beatles
And they spit right in my face
I tried and tried to fit the mold
I gave it my best shot
To push down my thoughts and bury my doubts
To keep the friends that I got
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
They said hey find out what you think
About living in this place
But if you go outside the fenceline
Boy you better hide your face
It went alright for a day or two
But I didn't like their songs
I went out to find some different tunes
And to find out why they were wrong
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
Yeah I think quite like you do
And we get along okay
But if I didn't believe the same way
Would you like me just the same
I hang my hat on a hook like yours
But I don't wear it quite as straight
We're more alike than you might think
And there's not a lot at stake
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
I'm wandering so why do I even try
Don't mind what people say
But I said I don't like The Beatles
And they spit right in my face
I tried and tried to fit the mold
I gave it my best shot
To push down my thoughts and bury my doubts
To keep the friends that I got
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
They said hey find out what you think
About living in this place
But if you go outside the fenceline
Boy you better hide your face
It went alright for a day or two
But I didn't like their songs
I went out to find some different tunes
And to find out why they were wrong
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
Yeah I think quite like you do
And we get along okay
But if I didn't believe the same way
Would you like me just the same
I hang my hat on a hook like yours
But I don't wear it quite as straight
We're more alike than you might think
And there's not a lot at stake
(Oh why) Oh why tell me why I even try
(To find) To find a quiet place beneath these skies
(Oh my) Oh my it's a place for fickle minds
And I'm wandering so why do I even try
I'm wandering so why do I even try
