lyrics

"I'm doing the best that I can" Lyrics & Music Jim Heltz

I’m out of sorts I’m off my game
The more I try The more I stay the same
I haven’t a clue I haven’t a plan
I muddle through I do the best that I can

There’s no brass ring on this ride
When did the parade passed me by, bye, bye bye, bye

I missed the boat this ship has sailed
There’s no safe harbor and the crew has bailed
Just a face in the crowd wearing old brown shoes
I guess I peaked I peaked too soon

I thought by now I’d hit my stride
Time is no longer on my side on my side on my side
I meandered about taking it day to day
Compass is pointing home but I still lost my way

I haven’t clue I haven’t a plan
I muddle through I do the best that I can I do the best that I can
