Byrd Tracy - That's What Keeps Her Getting By - Sözleri

(Bobby Huff/Shane Minor/Danny Wells)





Stack of bills on her kitchen table


Out go the lights and off goes the cable


If she don’t pay ‘em by the 15th


And it don’t look like she’s gonna be able


Two mouths to feed, two jobs barely get it done


A lot on her plate for a single mom at 21


From the outside looking in you’d think her world would crumble


But she keeps finding that light at the end of the tunnel





Somehow she keeps getting by


The only soft shoulder she knows


Is on some lonely road


She’s going down, she’s going down


Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not


No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life


Than what she’s got 


And that’s what keeps her getting by





Friday noon, parent teacher day


It’s Johnson elementary or half a shift’s pay


But she wouldn’t miss it for the world


She looks around at all the Daddy’s in the room


Wishing her kids had one of them too


This ain’t how she planned it; her life’s going ten different ways, 


It’s off to little league and then to ballet





Somehow she keeps getting by


The only soft shoulder she knows


Is on some lonely road


She’s going down, she’s going down


Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not


No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life


Than what she’s got 


And that’s what keeps her getting by





In every dark cloud


She keeps finding that silver lining





Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not


No matter what, she’s gonna give her kids a better life 


Than what she’s got


And that’s what keeps her getting by


Stack of bills on her kitchen table


Out go the lights and off goes the cable


If she don’t pay ‘em by the 15th


And it don’t look like she’s gonna be able


Two mouths to feed, two jobs barely get it done


A lot on her plate for a single mom at 21


From the outside looking in you’d think her world would crumble


But she keeps finding that light at the end of the tunnel





Somehow she keeps getting by


The only soft shoulder she knows


Is on some lonely road


She’s going down, she’s going down


Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not


No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life


Than what she’s got 


And that’s what keeps her getting by
