Gettin' Bye - Naked & alone C.D.

Lyrics

Underneath these stage lights I feel so good inside Got no need to ask myself about what I do and why An strange as this life may seem it’s really quite divine Funny how six strings and wood still suit this woman fine And I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye Now and then I ask myself would I still be alive If I went to work at nine and punched the clock at five And I know the answer would be chiseled in stone I may be crazy, but I am my mama’s own I’ve been from Boston baby out to East L.A. Ain’t (seen much glory lately, but everything’s o.k. An I’ve come to see this life, in a different kind of light Ain’t got much money but, I’m more than gettin’ bye And I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’ve learned to take a damn good punch then get up here and smile An thanks to you it just don’t take much before it’s all worth while Something in your eyes that makes me glad I went the mile Funny how six strings and wood still suit this women fine And I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’ve been from Boston baby out to East L.A. Ain’t seen much glory lately, but everything’s o.k. An I’ve come to see this life, in a different kind of light Ain’t got much money but, I’m more than gettin’ bye And I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye I’m gettin’ bye
