"Oh Lord" lyrics

"Oh Lord"

Oh Lord, what's wrong with me
I can't seem to be what I wanna be
And it's not for the sake of tryin'
I tried so hard, God know, and felt like dyin'

And if you've been watchin'
You woulda seen me cryin'
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won't You give me your hand
Won't You give me your hand

They say, you can do almost anything
If you really try
But this can't be right
'Cause I tried both day and night

So if I'm doin' it wrong
Please, won't You put me right
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won't You give me your hand
Won't You give me your hand

Hope I'm not askin' too much of You
Don't like really askin', but what else can I do
Oh, here I go again, I'm cryin'
The pen that I'm writin' this with is dyin'
Paper in this book sure took some buyin', Lord

So, oh Lord, oh Lord
Won't You give me your hand
Won't You give me your hand

Think that's about all I have to say
So if you can do anything to help me find my way
Sure would appreciate you tryin'
'Cause life's too short and I don't wanna spend it cryin'

My ma tells me I'm a fool, but I keep on tryin', Lord
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won't You give me your hand
Won't You give me your hand
Won't You give me your hand (oh Lord)
Won't You give me your hand (oh Lord)
Won't You give me your hand (oh Lord)
Won't You give me your hand (oh Lord)
Won't You give me your hand (give a little hand)
Won't You give me your hand (I need it so much)
Won't You give me your hand (oh Lord)

Won't You give me your hand
(Oh Lordy, Lordy, Lordy)
Won't You give me your hand
(Won't you give me Your hand)
Won't You give me your hand
(I need Your hand, Lordy)
