lyrics

Misty eyed in the morning. Sun dry by high noon.
Whiskey soaked by sundown By midnight I'm howling at the moon.

Don't know how I got this way. Not the dream I hoped for.
That's the price life makes you pay. The way I chase my blues away.

When I sit down at the table, It's not the game I wanna play,
Don't like the cards I was dealt, but I lay them down anyway.

I don't know what tomorrow brings. I do know one thing.
You work hard for what you got. Like it or not.
Stand up and face the day. You'll be OK
