"High Hopes" lyrics

"High Hopes"

Pills won't work and the bottle just runs me dry
Yeah, I can hear 'em all sayin' that a new crop's passed me by
Yeah, we used to be somethin'
Now we ain't nothin', you see
But I feel a little luck with a wild card up my sleeve

I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hangin' on the rope
Still I got high hopes

Everybody's your friend when you're standin' on a mountaintop
Oh, but when you take a slide, hell, it's like they all just forgot
Yeah, you're just another number
Just another sucker, you see
Another horse in the stable but you ain't heard the last of me
Yeah

I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one hand, but it's barely hangin' on the rope
Still I got high hopes

Ooh, yeah
I got high hopes
Ooh, yeah
I got high hopes

Life's like a hammer, it'll slowly just beat you down
Got a boot to the neck, but your screamin' don't make a sound
It's like a heavyweight battle, standin' with your black and blue
But when you look to the heavens, hell, I'm learnin' you can never lose, yeah

I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hangin' on the rope
Still I got high hopes

I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hangin' on the rope
Still I got high hopes
