(Bobby Huff/Shane Minor/Danny Wells) | |
Stack of bills on her kitchen table | |
Out go the lights and off goes the cable | |
If she don’t pay ‘em by the 15th | |
And it don’t look like she’s gonna be able | |
Two mouths to feed, two jobs barely get it done | |
A lot on her plate for a single mom at 21 | |
From the outside looking in you’d think her world would crumble | |
But she keeps finding that light at the end of the tunnel | |
Somehow she keeps getting by | |
The only soft shoulder she knows | |
Is on some lonely road | |
She’s going down, she’s going down | |
Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not | |
No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life | |
Than what she’s got | |
And that’s what keeps her getting by | |
Friday noon, parent teacher day | |
It’s Johnson elementary or half a shift’s pay | |
But she wouldn’t miss it for the world | |
She looks around at all the | |
Daddy’s in the room | |
Wishing her kids had one of them too | |
This ain’t how she planned it; her life’s going ten different ways, | |
It’s off to little league and then to ballet | |
Somehow she keeps getting by | |
The only soft shoulder she knows | |
Is on some lonely road | |
She’s going down, she’s going down | |
Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not | |
No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life | |
Than what she’s got | |
And that’s what keeps her getting by | |
In every dark cloud | |
She keeps finding that silver lining | |
Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not | |
No matter what, she’s gonna give her kids a better life | |
Than what she’s got | |
And that’s what keeps her getting by | |
Stack of bills on her kitchen table | |
Out go the lights and off goes the cable | |
If she don’t pay ‘em by the 15th | |
And it don’t look like she’s gonna be able | |
Two mouths to feed, two jobs barely get it done | |
A lot on her plate for a single mom at 21 | |
From the outside looking in you’d think her world would crumble | |
But she keeps finding that light at the end of the tunnel | |
Somehow she keeps getting by | |
The only soft shoulder she knows | |

She’s going down, she’s going down | |
Sometimes she feels like throwing in the towel, but she’s not | |
No matter what she’s gonna give her kids a better life | |
