One Step Up

Woke up this mornin The house was cold Checked the furnace she wasn't burnin' Went out and hopped in my old Ford Hit the engine but she ain't a turnin Given each other some hard lessons lately But we ain't learnin Same sad story thats a fact One step up and two steps back Bird on a wire outside my motel room but he aint singin Girl in white outside a church in June But the church bells they aint ringin' Sittin' here in this bar tonight And all I'm thinkin is Im the same old story same old act One step up and two steps back It's the same thing night all night Who's wrong and baby who's right Another fight and I slam the door on Another battle in our dirty little war When I look at myself I dont see the man I wanted to be Somewhere along the line I slipped off track Movin one step up and two steps back Theres a girl across the bar I get the message shes sendin Mmm she aint lookin too married Me well honey im pretending Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms The music was never endin' We danced as the evening sky faded to black Movin one step up and two steps up (One step up and two steps back) One step up and two steps back (One step up and two steps back) One step up and two steps back (One step up and two steps back) One step up and two steps back Ohhh.baby we're movin One step up and two steps back One step up and two steps back One step up and two steps back Mmm.one step up and two steps back (One step up and two steps back) (One step up and two steps back)
