I'm Alright

I've been walked on, put down, called nasty names and such

But I'm alright

I've been told I was never going to amount to very much

But I'm still alright

Had a woman break my heart, watched my life fall apart

Wrote my last song, then another one came along

And I'm alright

Somebody always finds something wrong in ideas they could never create

And if one succeeds, they say they knew all along that idea was great

They'll try to steal your dreams, try to break your heart

Sometimes it takes longer, but you get stronger and stronger

Then you feel alright

You can't keep a good idea down son

You can push it underground some

But it all comes around

And everything's alright

I've been told without much grace the problem is my face

But I'm alright

That I was born too soon and I've been asked to leave the room

But I'm still alright

Go ahead break my heart. Go ahead tear me apart

Go ahead try to deceive me, but I believe, I do believe

I'll be alright

You can't keep a good idea down son

You can push it underground some

But it all comes around and

Everything's alright

Everything's going to be alright
