Fred Oakman - We Can Make a Sad Song Last All Year Lyrics

I'll try my luck again
Maybe I'll hit straight lines
It's that famous fight within
Clawing like hell
Hold on like the common cold
Let 'em know that you've got the grit
If it rips at your heart
And it shakes up your soul
It was worth what you spent
We can make a sad song last all year
Stumbling backwards
Downhill swinging
Gnashing these old gears
I can ride a good buzz
Out all night
Darling I ain't too sure
Darling I ain't too sure
We can win this ugly fight
And the first time that we unearthed ourselves
That summer night it felt so strange
And that evening walk back to your house
Never felt the same
And we ran like the road wouldn't end
Gave `em hell until that well was all but dry
We learned harder than most ever intend
From choking on the smoke that's left
From all our burning, borrowed time
We can make a sad song last all year
Stumbling backwards
Downhill swinging
Gnashing these old gears
I can ride a good buzz
Out all night
Darling I ain't too sure
Darling I ain't too sure
Darling I ain't too sure
We can win this ugly fight
