Song Lyrics

Yeah, it's gonna be real pretty, man
Cheer up little darlin', don't be so sad
There's a time and place for the blues that you've had
Just hold what you've got, babe, and never give in
Seems like a tight spot, but it's just a loose end

Cheer up little darlin', don't be so sad
There's a time and place for the blues you have had
Hold what you've got, babe, never give in
It feels like a tight spot, but it's just a loose end

You can't fix the world, girl, it's so badly bent
But you can help it along if you save your own skin
The first thing you do, honey, is make you a list
Of the things that you've done and the things that you've missed

Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da

Do the best that you can, doll, there's no one to blame
It's just the turn that it took in this crazy old game
Hold what you've got, babe, never give in
It feels like a tight spot, but it's just a loose end

Guy Clark, Angaleena Presley
