Jelly Roll Get By Lyrics

"Get By" 

I light every bridge I see, yeah, just to watch it burn

If you'd seen all the hell I've seen, it'd make your stomach turn

I think you know why I do what I do, when I do, mmm

I could tell some stories 'bout some things you won't believe

It takes more than an offer now to set this sinner free

I think you know how I try when I try, Lord, I try

I might drink a little

I might smoke a lot

Counting down the good times

Staring down the clock

Throw some hallelujahs

To the big man in the sky

Show up Sunday morning

Looking just like last night

Yeah, that's how I get by

Oh, that's how I get by

Thousand miles of gravel, I've been walking with no shoes

No matter how far I come, I can't outrun my roots

I think you know why I do what I do, when I do

I might drink a little

I might smoke a lot

Counting down the good times

Staring down the clock

Throw some hallelujahs

To the big man in the sky

Show up Sunday morning

Looking just like last night

Yeah, that's how I get by

Oh, that's how I get by

I might drink a little

That's how I get by

Counting down the good times

That's how I get by

Throw some hallelujahs

That's how I get by

Show up Sunday morning

Smelling just like last night

I might drink a little

I might smoke a lot

Counting down the good times

Staring down the clock

Throw some hallelujahs

To the big man in the sky

Show up Sunday morning

Looking just like last night

Yeah, that's how I get by

Oh, that's how I get by

Lord, that's how I get by
