I gotta get myself off the side of the road

I gotta get myself up off the side of the road

Things are looking clear as they've ever been

Don't know how it'll end, but I know where to begin

I gotta get myself off the side of the road

I got to quit lying to myself and let the truth be told

I got to quit lying to myself and let the truth be told

Yeah, I woke up burned out by the sun

Tired of laying still, so I'm moving along

I got to quit lying to myself and let the truth be told

Yes

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again

Yeah, and I gotta hunt myself down a brand-new home

I gotta hunt myself down a brand-new home

Yeah, now I got the answer to my biggest question

Had to lose where I was to get my direction

I gotta hunt myself down a brand-new home

Oh, the tears that I'm hiding, no, they ain't for crying

Yeah, the tears that I'm hiding, no, they ain't for crying

I'm never gonna let 'em start spilling out

'Cause they pour down my body, and they flood the ground

The tears that I'm hiding, no, they ain't for crying

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground

Ah, Let the truth be told

Oh, baby, let the truth be told

Ah, let the truth be told

Baby, let the truth be told

Oh, mama, let the truth be told

Woke up, baby, let the truth be told

I gotta get myself up off the side of the road

Oh, quit lying to myself and let the truth be told

Oh, my head is heavy, and my heart is empty

But my spirit is strong, and my legs are ready

I gotta get myself up off the side of the road

Quit lying to myself and let the truth be told

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again

Ooh, ooh

Hey-hey, I've gotta pick myself up off the ground again
