lyrics

Get It Right
On the outskirts «a» Kansas City / On a non stop northbound train
Old poet pours his heart out / An he struggles with his pain
Watch his world flash by his window / Like the minutes of his life
All the horrible decisions / That he tries to justify
ll: Gonna get it right, Gonna get it right this time :ll
Many years that have whittled valleys / Like the wrinkles that are on his face
All the questions without answers / That he scribbles down in haste
Is that a whistle I hear howlin' / or Grim Reaper callin' me
Will I end face down like Allan Poe ? / Can I change my destiny ?
ll: Gonna get it right, Gonna get it right this time :ll
You know, Life's like a one way ticket / Everybody gotta walk the line
All the trials and tribulation / Gonna be an Uphill climb -
If the last train leaves you standing / At the station late at night
Well the next one might not pick you up / So you better get it right
