trying to matter

gary allan

we walk

we fly

we stay sober

we get high

we sleep all day

stay up all night

right a wrong

and live our lives

we work

we play

we leave

and we stay

we worry about tomorrow

today

we laugh

cry

cuss and pray

tryin to matter to somebody

tryin to get the time of day

tryin to fit into this crazy world

somehow

somewhere

someway

and it's all we're all lookin for

it's never too late ya know

to try and matter to the ones that matter most

i've lived

i've learned that bridges don't just burn

well that's the devil's selfish pride at work

every chance he gets he'll take his turn

tryin to matter to somebody

tryin to get the time of day

tryin to fit into this crazy world

somehow

somewhere

someway

and it's all we're all lookin for

it's never too late ya know

to try and matter to the ones that matter most

tryin to matter to somebody

tryin to get the time of day

tryin to fit into this crazy world

somehow

somewhere

someway

and it's all we're all lookin for

it's never too late ya know

to try and matter to the ones that matter most

it's never too late ya know

tryin to matter to somebody
