Testo That's What Keeps Her Getting By - Tracy Byrd
Testo della canzone That's What Keeps Her Getting By (Tracy Byrd), tratta dall'album The Truth About Men
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 of thirty-one
From the outside looking in, you'd think her world would crumble
She keeps finding that light at the end of the tunnel
But somehow she keeps gettin' by
The only soft shoulder she knows
Is on some old broken 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 better a life than what she's got
And that's what keeps her gettin' by
Friday at noon, it's parent teacher day
It's Johnson elementary or half a shift's pay
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
But somehow she keeps gettin' by
The only soft shoulder she knows
Is on some old broken road she's going down, she's going down
And sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel
But she's not, no matter what
She's gonna give her kids better a life than what she's got
And that's what keeps her gettin' by
In every dark cloud, oh 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 gettin' by
Yeah, that's what keeps her gettin' by
