Get By Songtext
von Jelly Roll

I light every bridge I see, yeah, just to watch it burn
If you′d seen all the hell I've seen, it′d make your stomach turn
I think you know why I do what I do when I do, mm
I could tell some stories 'bout some things you won't believe
It takes more than an album now to set this sinner free
I think you know how I try when I try, Lord, I try

I might drink a little, I might smoke a lot
Countin′ down the good times, starin′ down the clock
Throw some hallelujahs to the big man in the sky
Show up Sunday morning, lookin' just like last night
Yeah, that′s how I get by (ooh)
Oh, that's how I get by (ooh, ooh)

Thousand miles of gravel, I′ve been walking with no shoes
No matter how far I come, I can't outrun my roots
I think you know why I do what I do when I do


I might drink a little, I might smoke a lot
Countin′ down the good times, starin' down the clock
Throw some hallelujahs to the big man in the sky
Show up Sunday morning, lookin' just like last night
Yeah, that′s how I get by (ooh)
Oh, that′s how I get by (ooh, ooh)

I might drink a little (that's how I get by)
Counting down the good times (that′s how I get by)
Throw some hallelujahs (that's how I get by)
Show up Sunday morning smellin′ just like last night, ah

I might drink a little (might drink a little), I might smoke a lot
Countin' down the good times, starin′ down the clock
Throw some hallelujahs (hallelujahs) to the big man in the sky (big man)
Show up Sunday morning, lookin' just like last night
Yeah, that's how I get by (ooh)
Oh, that′s how I get by (ooh)
Lord, that′s how I get by
