"Tryin' Man" lyrics

"Tryin' Man"

I'll show them every time you know that I can
Don't you want to live with a tryin' man
I'll provide for you, keep the cash in the can
Do the runaround, give you everything I can
I'll do what I can to make you understand
I'm a handmade man, made stand up man

I'm tryin' man, I'm tryin' man
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin'

I keep on pushing this rock up the hill
Sirens wailing I got no time to kill
I make my living anyway I can

If I die before my time
I better be having a good time
If I die before my time
Don't wanna go on crying
Don't wanna feel like dying

I'm a certified motherfucking pain in the ass
Like a problem child, in the back of the class
Been a lonely boy, been a whipping boy
Been a used stage jumping, I say hi boy
I get in and out of trouble just as fast as I can
I'm all alone in the dark with my dick in my hand

I'm tryin' man, I'm tryin' man
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin'

Red lights flashing
Trains coming fast
I got my good leg, caught in the tracks
I know you'll never find a better man

If I die before my time
I better be having a good time
If I die before my time
Don't wanna go out trying
Don't wanna feel like dying

Well here comes the power you don't know what to do
It's gonna get you through well you know who
It ain't the government, or your girlfriend
Or the drugs or your dog or the candy man
Coming up out of the fire to the frying pan
Ain't a perfect date or a Superman

I'm tryin' man, I'm tryin' man
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm

If I die before my time
I better be having a good time
If I die before my time
I better be having a time, of my life
If I'm not trying
I might be dying
