Lord feel the world cavin' in, I know the world has got me beat, Try to reach up to the sky, But feel the hell burnin' up my feets And I've tried yes i've tried Tried to find me a better way Deep in this ditch it's hard to see Deep from the debts I gots to pay All i have is a bottom dollar All i ever seen All i get is the bottom dollar Don't ya place no bets on me And time keeps a movin' on Just like the way my ways should be Try to find that common ground But it all looks strange to me Try to get me a helpin' hand Try to get this boat to shore Try to reach that promise land Fell to my knees outside the door
