Album: I'm From The Country

Gettin' Me Over Mountains

(Larry Boone/Paul Nelson/Tracy Byrd)

It¡¯s an everyday battle
Just tryin' to break even
No, there ain¡¯t no gettin¡¯ ahead
When you¡¯re just gettin¡¯ by
But she¡¯s standing on the front porch
When I get home in the evening
That¡¯s how I know everything¡¯s gonna be all right

I¡¯ve crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I don¡¯t know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her loveThere are days I wanna give up
Declare the world a winner
When the bills and the dog gone boss
Won¡¯t cut me no slack
But when we¡¯re turnin' these lights down
And I¡¯m lyin' there with her
There ain¡¯t a rock on the road of life
I can¡¯t get past

I¡¯ve crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I don¡¯t know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her love
Getting me over mountains with her love
