i get by

Stealers Wheel

(Egan)

Woke up this morning, I got out of bed,
Too late to go to work ââ?¬â? walked my dog instead.
I donââ?¬â?¢t try too hard, but I get by.

You donââ?¬â?¢t have to tell me Iââ?¬â?¢ve got a lot to learn,
Think I gotta laugh at your overconcern.
I donââ?¬â?¢t try too hard, but I get by.

You sit there with your fancy cigar and you think, ââ?¬Å?I got it madeââ?¬,
I don't want no fast car, whoa no.

Iââ?¬â?¢m never ready, donââ?¬â?¢t have to wait,
Everybody knows Iââ?¬â?¢m bound to get there late.
I donââ?¬â?¢t try too hard, but I get by.

You sit there with your fancy cigar and you think, ââ?¬Å?I got it madeââ?¬,

Iââ?¬â?¢m never ready, donââ?¬â?¢t have to wait,
Everybody knows Iââ?¬â?¢m bound to get there late.
I donââ?¬â?¢t try too hard, but I get by..
