Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woman, you got my eye
And all of my heart
There's no place I'd rather be
When you're gone, I try to hold on, but I falter
I'm not as strong as I need to be
[PreChorus]
You see
Every night, another comes to me, sayin' that
If I look on the other side, the grass is just as green
And I know in my mind, she is not for real
But I can't deny the way she makes me feel
[Chorus]
I keep trying to do right, ah, baby
But I keep on doing wrong, ah-ah
I keep trying to do right, ah, baby
But I keep on doing wrong
[Verse 2]
I should know by now that the feeling is wrong
The strongest feelings can deceive
When we're apart, she start to talkin'
And I tend to get naive
[PreChorus]
You see
She comes around and tells me, "You don't even care"
And she's got real love, you don't compare
And deep down, inside I know she'll never be you (Never be you)
But what's this lonely heart supposed to do?
[Chorus]
I keep trying to do right, ah, baby
But I keep on doing wrong, ah-ah
I keep trying to do right, ah, baby
But I keep on doing wrong, mm-hmm
[Instrumental]
Well, I wish that I could be a better man
One who you can love and trust, and understand (Can understand)
Look a little bit closer, girl, all you see is pain
'Cause I just keep falling again and again, and again
[Chorus]
I keep trying to do right, baby (Ah, baby)
But I keep on doing wrong, keep on doing wrong
I keep trying to do right, baby (Ah, baby)
But I keep on doing wrong
I keep trying to do right, baby (Ah, baby)
But I keep on doing wrong
I said, I keep trying to do right, baby (Ah, baby)
Trying to do right, but I keep on doing wrong
Hey
[Outro]
(Trying to do right) Oh, oh, you
Oh (Trying to do right)
Hey-hey (Keep on doing wrong)
(Trying to do right)
[Instrumental]
(Trying to do right)
