Trace Adkins - I'm Tryin lyrics

This getting up early, pulling double shifts,

Gonna make an old man of me long before I ever get rich.

But I'm trying

It's been two years since we've finalized,

I still ain't used to putting ex in front of wife.

But I'm trying.

Send more money right away,

Is pretty much all she has to say

When she calls these days and don't you be late

But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on trying

And all I can be is all I can be and I keep on trying

There's always a mountain in front of me,

Seems I'm always climbing and falling and climbing

But I keep on trying

I remember daddy saying

Keep your eye on the ball, run like hell, play to win,

Get up when you fall

I'm trying

Don't say nothing that you can't take back

Never do anything you might regret

No don't do that

Daddy I'm trying

Know the difference between heaven and hell

Go easy on the bottle be hard on yourself

And I know he meant well

But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on trying

And all I can be is all I can be and I keep on trying

There's always a mountain in front of me,

Seems I'm always climbing and falling and climbing

But I keep on trying

Keep on trying

But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on trying

And all I can be is all I can be and I keep on trying

But all I can do, is all I can do and I keep on trying

There's always a mountain in front of me

Seems I'm always climbing and stumbling

And then falling

And then climbing

But I keep on trying

This getting up early pulling double shifts

Gonna make an old man of me

Long before I ever get rich

But I'm trying
