Lyrics for Pick Myself Up

Sittin' in the morning sun And watching all the birds passing by Oh how sweet they sing And oh how much I wish that I could fly And I try I said I try I try I really try try try But I got to Pick myself up Dust myself off Start all over, again (CHORUS 2x) Sittin' in the midday sun And wondering where my meal's coming from After working so hard Not even piece of bread at the yard And I said I try Oh Lord I try I try I really try try try Sittin' in the evening sun And watching the same birds passing by Sittin' and wondering And waiting for the time for me to fly And I try I said I try Good Lord I try I really try try try So long and I just find It was just a waste of time So long and I just find I been been wasting all my time I've got to pick myself up...
