Sean McConnell - Getting Somewhere lyrics

My father, he's a good man It took a while to understand That we all do the best we can with what we can He might've had too much to drink I can hear the ice cubes clinking In the kitchen while he smoked into the window fan But I never wanted for a word And I swallowed everything I heard And I hold it like it's gold and hear it all again Keep your hands on the ten and the two Keep your eye on the ball and follow through When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck And though I pray you never do If you gеt a little lost just say a prayer And don't spend your wholе life getting somewhere Some people have a hole to fill They try and try but never will 'Cause they never got the love that we were built to have But I never had a day go by He didn't look me in the eye Said, "I love you, I'm proud of you And I always will" Keep your hands on the ten and the two Keep your eye on the ball and follow through When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck And though I pray you never do If you get a little lost just say a prayer And don't spend your whole life getting somewhere He'd say, "On a scale from one to ten How's your heart and how you been?" He still gets around to askin' every now and then Keep your hands on the ten and the two Keep your eye on the ball and follow through When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck And though I pray you never do If you get a little lost just say a prayer And don't spend your whole life getting somewhere
