Rawhide

Life is a messy business
But I get up for work everyday
I won't pretend I don't cry when it's hard
But I'm really glad that I stayed

I don't pretend I haven't been there
Because I know what it's like to feel pain
But I know that life's for living babe
So I dust myself and don't feel no shame
To feel this way

Long days, longs nights
Getting drunk with a friend of mine
Sun beating down on our rawhide
It's so hot that I close my eyes

I just want to feel like this
For the rest of my life
Don't want to feel as low
As I did back then

The hardest thing is realizing
That your not special like your momma says
But don't dwell on the things that you'll change
Or one day you'll blink and you'll be dead

I think I'm finally ready to change
To see the good where once was the bad
So I'll open my eyes to see the sunrise
And hold you close to show I'm glad
For what I have

Long days, longs nights
Getting lost with a friend of mine
Sun beating down on our rawhide
It's so hot that I close my eyes

I just want to feel like this
For the rest of my life
Don't want to feel as low
As I did back then

So I tell myself
You'll be okay
Don't be afraid
The sun will rise tomorrow
As it did today

So I tell myself
You'll be okay
Don't be afraid
The sun will rise tomorrow
As it did today

So I tell myself
You'll be okay
Don't be afraid
The sun will rise tomorrow
As it did today

Yeah
Yeah
Long days
Long nights
Sun beating down on
On rawhide
