The Best We Can Songtext
von Kat Hasty

Mama′s always yelling, daddy's always telling
The TV to go to hell
My brother′s out of touch, he don't get out much
And the other one's just paying the bills

The thing about me is I′m clinically insane
I gotta baby on my hip and the same last name
And we′re all just doing the best we can

They been through hell so you know I can't blame ′em
Lord knows that I ain't never gonna change ′em
Ain't no place, no dream of mine
No heaven on Earth where the sun always shines
We′re all just doin the best we can

I put tires down, gonna move to the city
Where the grass is green, and the people are pretty
The thing about rich folks is they got problems
They just keep 'em all hidden in their big ol' closets


Thing about my folks is they got issues
They just take ′em out at Christmas
Make it everybody′s business
And the thing about me, I ain't no better
I′m just white trash hiding in a Pendleton sweater
And we're all just doin the best we can

They been through hell so you know I can′t blame 'em
Lord knows that I ain′t never gonna change 'em
Ain't no place, no dream of mine
No heaven on Earth where the sun always shines
We′re all just doin the best we can

Alright, I wrote this next verse for my best friend Lorrie

Now Lorrie is a saint, my family loves her more than me
She′s a nice addition to the family tree
She don't cuss she was raised up right
But she′s drinking us under the table tonight
And we're all just doin the best we can

They been through hell so you know I can′t blame 'em
Lord knows that I ain′t never gonna change 'em
Ain't no place, no dream of mine
No heaven on Earth where the sun always shines
We′re all just doin the best we can
We′re all just doin the best we can
