I`m Doin` My Best Lyrics

I`m Doin` My Best lyrics

Single six months yesterday

 Thought I oughta celebrate

 So I went down to grab a couple beers

 

 And I got so drunk I ripped my pants

 I asked the bouncer for a dance

 I thanked him as he threw me out

 I woke up at a Waffle House

 With a shiner and a wild brunette

 She don't know my real name yet

 Well no I ain't over you

 

 But I'm doin' my best

 Every day and every night

 Hangin' on by a thread

 That's stretched just a little too tight

 If I can't find some peace of mind

 I'll take what I can get

 I ain't doin' much good

 But I'm doin' my best

 

 I decided I'd get smart

 And have a long talk with my heart

 At some quiet spot outside of town

 

 So I took my best friend's Pontiac

 I drove it like a maniac

 Right into the reservoir

 I guess we ain't best friends no more

 Just my luck a cop came by

 Who I beat up in junior high

 He said I better have a good excuse

 

 I said I'm doin' my best

 Every day and every night

 Hangin' on by a thread

 That's stretched just a little too tight

 If I can't find some peace of mind

 I'll take what I can get

 I ain't doin' much good

 But I'm doin' my best

 

 Some day I just might join the human race again

 If I can ever find a place to show my face again

 Yeah I'm doin' my best

 

 I said I'm doin' my best

 Every day and every night

 Hangin' on by a thread

 That's stretched just a little too tight

 If I can't find some peace of mind

 I'll take what I can get

 I ain't doin' much good

 But I'm doin' my best

 I'm doin' my best

 I'm doin' my best
