Lyrics
I'm gonna keep giving it all that I've got, when I've got nothing left but a prayer
When I'm bumping the bottom, fresh out of ideas and it's past time to come up for air
When my mind can't remember the words to a song but it keeps on hearing the tune
It can't get any tougher, but somehow it does
when I'm digging a ditch with a spoon.
Digging a ditch with a spoon, is like trying to read
without light
When I give out of gas, when the good times have
passed and I keep on keeping on with all of my might
When I have no excuse, when I know it's no use,
when hope floats away like a balloon
Nothing much left to say, but I try anyway when
I'm digging a ditch with a spoon.
Nobody promised me life would be fair, or that I'd catch a break now and then
I've gotta play with the cards I was dealt, even when it feels like a dead end
Deep down in my soul where hope never grows old,
I'll find the right words and a tune
So I choose to keep doing the best that I can
While I'm digging my ditch with a spoon.
Digging a ditch with a spoon, is like trying to read without light
When I give out of gas, when the good times have passed and I keep on keeping on with all of my might
When I have no excuse, when I know it's no use,
when hope floats away like a balloon
it can't get any tougher, but somehow it does
when I'm digging a ditch with a spoon
it can't get any tougher, but somehow it does
when I'm digging a ditch with a spoon
digging a ditch with a spoon
digging a ditch with a spoon
digging a ditch
digging a ditch
digging a ditch with a spoon
