College Try

(álbum: Bloomin' - 2021)

Put my foot in my mouth
And though you're pure of heart you can't pull it out
But you keep lying around
And I keep lying to myself

Back when I used to get by
Giving it the old college try

I can't keep up with you
And I didn't come this far
To feed you all my lies
But you get the best of my time
You put me on another walk of shame
With a little pep in my stride
Couldn't break your spell if I tried

Put my foot in my mouth
You're always laughing at me for crying out loud
Well, it's something that I can't help
But you'd always say, "Well, hell, we'll figure it out"
Punch me in the face, it made my day
Baby, whip me into shape and I'll come around

When I used to get by
Giving it the old college try

I can't keep up with you
And I didn't come this far
To feed you all my lies
But you get the best of my time
You put me on another walk of shame
With a little pep in my stride
Couldn't break your spell if I tried
