"I'll Get By" lyrics

"I'll Get By"

I'll get by
I'll get by

I'll get by
Don't ask me how but I'll get by

I wish that you could have stayed
Yes I wish that I hadn't been played
I guess I weren't on top of my game
And I can't exclude myself from the blame

'Cause any other fool would have known
That in your world, anything goes
Anything goes
Any other fool would have known

I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by
Don't ask me how but I'll get by

I left my heart to hang on your door
I should have known that you wanted more
I guess I was the last to see
That my world about to turn on me

'Cause any other fool would have known
That in your world, anything goes
Anything goes
Any other fool would have known

That's why I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by
Don't ask me how but I'll get by

In the beginning
I cursed the cheatin' heart that tore my world apart
But who was I to criticize
I'd been the player just the same, just the same

I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by
Don't ask me how but I'll get by

I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
You better believe it when I'm sayin'
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by

I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by
Don't ask me how but I'll get by

I'll do what I've got to do
I'll find a way to make it through
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll do what I've got to do
Lord knows it ain't nothing new
I'll get by...
