I Can Get By Lyrics - Singles - Buddy Jewell

(Clint Black) 

In a simple life dreams die hard 

You never let'em go 

All the while you play your hands 

And you may never know 

Why it's always lady luck 

On someone else's palm they read 

You holding my two hands 

Is really all I need 

I can get by if it all fell through 

Right down to the bottom of my list 

I can get by lookin' back on life 

Find that I've too many things I've missed 

I can get by without doing 

All the crazy things some people do 

But I wouldn't wanna try even 

Barely gettin' by without you 

Many things I've come to need 

That I could do without 

And many more I've done without 

I could come to need 

The one thing that I'd fight to keep 

Until my days are through 

Is when I lay me down to sleep 

I'm lyin' next to you 

I can get by if it all fell through 

Right down to the bottom of my list 

I can get by lookin' back on life 

Find that I've too many things I've missed 

I can get by without doing 

All the crazy things some people do 

But I wouldn't wanna try even 

Barely gettin' by without you 

I can get by if it all fell through 

Right down to the bottom of my list 

I can get by lookin' back on life 

Finding I've too many things I've missed 

Barely gettin' by without you 

I can get by if it all fell through 

Right down to the bottom of my list 

I can get by lookin' back on life 

Find that I've too many things I've missed 

I can get by without doing 

All the crazy things some people do 

But I wouldn't wanna try even 

Barely gettin' by without you
