Do Or Die

(album: Southern Way Of Life - 2013)

I'm sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor
Wondering how I'm gonna make it to the store
Trying to make it through another week I didn't get paid
I feel a little hand rest on my sleeve
My little boy's voice so soft and sweet
Says, “Momma, we got all we need…we're gonna be ok”
How we learn to live without is when we learn to live…

[CHORUS:]
SO DO OR DIE, LAUGH OR CRY
THIS IS JUST A TEMPORARY STORM THAT'S BLOWING BY
SINK OR SWIM, LOSE OR WIN
IT TAKES THE EXTRAORDINARY TO CHANGE THE WORLD WE'RE IN
I CAN SIT AROUND AND THINK ABOUT ALL THE REASONS WHY
OR JUST DO OR DIE.

I heard about a Man from Galilee
Who laid down His life for you and me
And never said a word about the pain
Man, I wanna feel love like that
And the will to give away everything I have
And find some peace in my heart and not complain
When we learn to love like that is when we learn to live…

[CHORUS REPEAT]

[SOLO]

[CHORUS REPEAT]

WE CAN SIT IT OUT OR TURN AROUND AND GIVE IT ONE MORE TRY
'CAUSE IT'S DO OR DIE.

I'm sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor
Wondering how I'm gonna make it to the store….
It's do or die.
