It must be getting early, clocks are running late
Paint-by-number morning sky looks so phony
Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains, I don't care 'cause it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
ย
I see you've got your fist out, say your piece and get out
Yes, I get the gist of it, but it's alright
Sorry that you feel that way, the only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a touch of grey
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
ย
It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's we all must face
Try to keep a little grace
ย
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's we all think of
And try to wean a little love
ย
I know the rent is in arrears, the dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears, but it's alright
Cow is giving kerosene, kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene, but it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
ย
I will get by
I will survive
ย
The shoe is on the hand it fits, there's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit 'cause it's alright
Oh, well, a touch of grey, kinda suits you anyway
That was all I had to say and it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
ย
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
ย
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
