Lyrics:
Back on the job think I'm workin' too hard
Need a little break 'cause I'm feeling kinda tired
Rather be sittin' home sleepin' in the yard
This day's getting' awful long
Then I remember what the Lord told me
Gotta be a servant with humility
Need to keep in mind what I'm called to be
When I'm weak He is strong
Chorus:
I'm livin' this day by day
Don't think I'd make it any other way
But if the good Lord's a willin' and the creek don't rise
I'm gonna make it to the other side
(Whistling)
Used to go to church, preacher went too long
Stand up, sit down, sing another song
I was sittin' there but my mind was gone
When was this gonna end (yawn)
Now I'm a-sittin' on the very front row
Singing 'bout the Savior I've come to know
Guess I just need a little time to grow
Finally came 'round the bend
(Now I'm livin' this life)
Repeat Chorus
Back in the holler where the honeysuckle grows
Lives a little lady I've come to know
Know that she loves me 'cause she told me so
And that means a lot to me (marry that girl)
We got married on a moonlit night
She promised she'd follow if I hold on tight
Lord's gonna lead us to a brand new height
Only his eyes can see
Don't you know...
Repeat Chorus
Well if the good Lord's a willin' and the creek don't rise (We're livin' this day by day)
We're gonna make it to the other side
