You gotta be a little smarter

Try a little bit harder

You gotta do what you can

To get on down the line

You gotta dig a little deeper

And push a little bit further

You gotta do what you can

And not be left behind

You gotta do it for yourself

And I will too

You gotta put it all behind you

Leave nothing to remind you

You got to put it all away

To get out whats inside

Be honest with yourself

And I will too

You gotta do it for yourself

And I will too

You gotta speak a little louder

You gotta be a little prouder

Cause you know that someday

Your bones will be in the ground

The grass is a whole lot greener

On the other side

I left a part of myself

When I left it all behind

Hungry gather ground

It's not what I've been reading

But what I've been needing

You and I we came to feel all right

Trying to get on down the line

You gotta do it for yourself

And I will too

Be honest with yourself

And I will too

You gotta take a little love

And I will too

You gotta take a little love

If I will too

The grass is a whole lot greener

On the other side

I left a part of myself

When I left it all behind

Hungry gather ground

It's not what I've been reading

But what I've been needing

Feeling it out came to feel alright

Trying to get on down the line

You gotta do it for yourself

And I will too
