Lyrics

GETTIN' ON WITH MY LIFE
words & music by Grayson Hugh


I been stuck here by the roadside
for way too long
now it's time to get movin'
get to where I belong
everybody’s been tellin’ me
it’s time to get away
I know I'm gonna get there
somehow, some way

I'm gettin' on with my life
and I’m goin’ without a care
I know this direction
is gonna take me somewhere
I'm gettin' on with my life
now a new day is here
I'm gonna give up my excuses
all my sorrows, sadness
and my fear

Lord it’s hard to leave you
we been together for so long
but I gotta heed this feelin
I know staying would be wrong
I been tellin’ myself a story
and I been tellin’ it to you
I found myself believin’ it
now I know what to do

I'm gettin' on with my life
and I’m goin’ without a care
I know this direction
is gonna take me somewhere
I'm gettin' on with my life
'cause I was caught in a snare
took a while for me to see it
to see through this whole sad affair
lost in the dark
now I’m out of there

Passing pine wood swamps as I go
I’m leaving the coast and clay
all the things I know

Now I’m drivin’ down the interstate
I can hear that highway wind
comin’ from the western ocean
it's blowin’ back east again
Ain’t nobody gonna find me
don’t you try, try to write to me
no tellin’ where I’ll wind up
but I know that I’ll be free

I’m gettin’ on with my life
and I’m goin’ without a care
I know that the road
is gonna take me somewhere
I’m gettin’ on with my life

'cause now a new day is here
I'm gonna give up my confusion
and I’m happy
so happy now that I’m here
