 Now I can sing you the story line

 And if you like my story fine

 But ain’t none of the glory mine

 See my life was a lonely one

 And I was dear momma's only son

 With no idea of what I’m gonna become

 And I didn’t have long to know

 That you don’t have to be grown to go

 I could have died so long before

 Then I finally saw the sign

 And I made it on down the line

 One step at a time

 I feel a lil better

 I can smile at it now

 I feel a lil better

hah

 Oh better

 And even a little is still a lil better

 Oh have mercy on me

 Ooh it’s probably plain to see

 That I got a whole lot of pain in me

 And it will always remain in me

 So cold it’s a crying shame

 Yet here I am trying again

 Cause I refuse to die in vain

 The circumstances put soul in me

 And there ain’t no holding me

 I’ve got a heart made of gold in me

 Can you believe this is where I’ve been?

 And when adversity comes again

 I’ll deal with it then

 I feel better

 I can laugh at it now

 I feel better …Ha ha

 Oh better

 And even a little is still a little better

 Oh have mercy on me

 I said everything's fine you can take your time

 What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin'

 I would wanna just feel this a one more time

 I said everything's fine you can take your time

 What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin'

 I would wanna just feel this a one more time

 I wanna thank you morning sun

 I wanna thank you lowly dirt

 Now I know I’m not the only one

 I, I wanna thank you friendly ghost

 When all the calls were close

 It seems like you care the most

 I, I wanna thank you mom and dad

 For hurting me so bad

 But you’re the best I ever had

 I, I wanna thank you
