Long Way To Go

Well, I can't quite figure all this busting my ass
But a man's only worth his pay
It's a hard way of losing this coming up short
But I seem to get better each day

Now I'm stoking that fire
Like a stack of old tires
Just trying to shake off the cold
Life's a hard truth to swallow when you can't stand tomorrow
And I still got a long way to go

There was a time when I held that line
Had me a wife and a home
But along with my pride hell it all said goodbye
I guess a whore can't make no home

Now I'm stoking that fire
Like a stack of old tires
Just trying to shake off the cold
Well, the good lords forgiven
I'm sure he's got his reasons
As for me I've got a long way to go

Now I'm stoking that fire
Like a stack of old tires
Just trying to shake off the cold
It's a hard truth to swallow when you can't stand tomorrow
And I still got a long way to go
Lord we all got a long way to go
