Pick Myself Up

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sittin' in the morning sun

And watching all the birds passing by

Oh how sweet they sing

And oh how much I wish that I could fly

And I try

I said I try

I try

I really try try try

But I got to

Pick myself up

Dust myself off

Start all over, again (CHORUS 2x)

Sittin' in the midday sun

And wondering where my meal's coming from

After working so hard

Not even piece of bread at the yard

And I said I try

Oh Lord I try

I try

I really try try try

Sittin' in the evening sun

And watching the same birds passing by

Sittin' and wondering

And waiting for the time for me to fly

And I try

I said I try

Good Lord I try

I really try try try

So long and I just find

It was just a waste of time

So long and I just find

I been been wasting all my time

I've got to pick myself up...
