Thought I'd be married by now
Two kids and a big ol' white house
Sittin' pretty on my own piece of land
Thought I'd have a lot more in my bank account
Wouldn't have me, a mind full of doubts
Be satisfied right where I am
It's compare and contrast
What I'm not, what they have
We're all saddled up in this pony show
Trynna make the ducks look in a row
Too busy trynna make a livin'
Forgettin' to make a life
I've come a long way down the road
Runnin' on empty, nowhere close
I don't know where, but I'm gettin' there
One day at a time
And there's a younger version of me
That would have given anything just to be
In the shoes that I'm standin' in right now (right now)
Yeah, she's still somewhere inside
And deep down she's losin' her mind
Well, I'm caught up lookin' around at how
We're all saddled up in this pony show
Tryna make the ducks look in a row
Too busy tryna make a livin'
Forgettin' to make a life
I've come a long way down the road
Running on empty, nowhere close
I don't know where but I'm gettin' there
One day at a time
It's compare and contrast
What I'm not, what they have
But I only see half, I know that
We're all saddled up in this pony show
Tryna make the ducks look in a row
Too busy tryna make a living
Forgetting to make a life
I've come a long way down the road
Runnin' on empty, nowhere close
I don't know where but I'm gettin' there
One day at a time
At a time
One day at a time
