My life...A Little Better

Now I can sing you the storyline
And if you like my story fine
But ain't none of the glory mine...

See my life was a lonely one
And I was still momma's only son
With no idea what I'm gon' become
And I didn't have long to know
That you don't have to be grown to go
I could have died so long
Then I finally saw the sign
And I made it on down the line
One step at a time.

I feel better!
I can smile at it now, I feel better
Ohhhh, better!
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on me

It's probably plain to see
That I got a whole lot of pain in me
And it will always remain in me...

So cold, it's a cryin shame
Yet here I am, trying again
Cause I refuse to die in vain!

The circumstances put soul in me
And there ain't no holding me
I've got a heart made of gold in me.

Hah, can you believe this is where I've been?
And when adversity comes again
I'll deal with it then

I feel better!
I can laugh at it now, I feel better,
Ohhhh, better!
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on me

I said everything's fine, you can take your time
What would be on your mind, if you knew you was dying
I would wanna just feel this one more time....

I wanna thank you morning sun
I wanna thank you lonely gun
Now I know I'm not the only one

I wanna thank you friendly ghost
When all the calls were close
It seems like you cared the most

I wanna thank you Mom and Dad
For hurting me so bad
But you're the best I ever had

I wanna thank you...
