Lyrics

Tryin'

[Verse]

I'm just arriving in the city

And there's music on my mind

Looking for my destination and

My home is far behind

Cause it's a long road ahead

And you can make it in the end

And I'm going to make it with my friends

And I'm trying

It took me sometime to see it

Now I'm looking through this world

And it's going to take some time before

I get back, help me girl

Cause you can make it if you try

You got to lay it on the line

And everything will be fine if you try

Sitting smoking just a thinking

Is an easy thing to do

We got to keep on trying for

The feeling to come through

And it's a lonely way to live

You got to take it, you got to give

If you mistake it, just try again

And I'm trying, yeah!

Got to keep on trying

Ah, we got to keep on trying

Yeah I'm trying[etc]
