The Yawpers - Doing It Right lyrics

You can't love her if she don't stay A woman like that there's a price to pay She gave you a life, she can take it away You can't love her if she don't stay She walks in, and you make room You're never really ready but it's what you've got to do It'll all be over before too soon She walks in, and you make room No silver-tongued man can inherit the earth It's the callous on your fingers not the glory of birth You've put all your faith in the wrong sense of worth No silver- tongued man can inherit the earth Every man needs something to be, but if he does it blindly he's nothing to see The meanest, hardest struggle is doing it right You've been spending all your time just pressing your luck You're gonna lose her brother and you've lost quite enough This trip to the bottom don't include a way up You've been spending all your time just pressing your luck Searching isn't life, and it comes at a cost You've been looking so long that you're surely lost When you're hoping for the world you can forget what you've got Searching isn't life and it comes at a cost Every man needs something to be, but if he does it blindly he's nothing to see The meanest, hardest struggle is doing it right Let me tell you something man it's night out there There's no fires left burning and an absence of air You can suffer in the world and there's no one to care Let me tell you something man it's night out there If you never wake up then it isn't a dream This ain't indictment and it isn't a creed The engine is turning but it's all out of steam If you never wake up then it isn't a dream Everyman needs something to be, but if he does it blindly he's nothing to see The meanest, hardest, ugly, struggle…doing it right
