[Verse 1] I'm emptier than anybody ever said that I would be This honeys**le doubt is clingin' deep into the spine of me And even though I'm movin' fast and stayin' on track I keep lookin' back -I keep lookin' right back Cuz everything is harder than I ever thought possible And nothin's gettin' easier, and nothin's lookin' probable I'm out of breath and achin', but I still got more to show Is this how it goes? Is this the way it goes? [Chorus] I - I never know what to say I never know what to do I just keep tryin', keep tryin' Keep tryin', keep tryin' Keep tryin' - keep pushin' on through [Verse 2] The younger set is lucky and it's k**in' me to tell 'em so I'm eaten up with envy, growin' steady to an overflow I'd k** it if I could, but bein' hungry makes it sure
That I want it more - I want it so much more Cuz I been workin' steadier than Rosie with her riveter And luck has never loved me, though I try my best to signal her My enemy's internal, and I fight it as I can Got no better plan, this is a do or die plan cuz [Chorus] I - I never know what to say I never know what to do I just keep tryin', keep tryin' Keep tryin' keep tryin' Keep tryin' - keep pushin' on through [Chorus/Outro] I - I never know what to say I never know what to do I just keep tryin', keep tryin' Keep tryin' keep tryin' Keep tryin' - keep pushin' on through Keep pushin' on through Keep pushin' on through Pushin' on through Keep pushin' on through
