Alabama – Give Me One More Shot Lyrics

Life ain’t all that easy I can testify to that
It’s been up and down and round and round to get to where I’m at
If you could see how I’m living in this old car I drive
Well you’d probably wonder and even ponder why I even wanna stay alive

[Chorus:]
So give me one more shot I’ll give it all I’ve got
Let me open my eyes to a new sunrise I pray
Give me one more chance I’ll learn to dance the dance
Well I’m satisfied just being alive give me one more day

Well I could complain about taxes or the weather we’re having today
Go on and on about things that are wrong from New York to L.A.
Well that’s just not my nature to sit around feeling sad
We’re only here for awhile so why not smile hey living ain’t all that bad

[Chorus]

When I look around there’s lots of folks worse off than me
So I just thank the good Lord and ask him please

[Chorus]

Well I’m satisfied just being alive give me one more day
Give me one more shot I’ll give it all I’ve got give me one more day
Show me the way, and give me one more day
Give me one more shot
