Can't Sing Straight - Teddy Thompson

I been drinking so much I can’t sing straight

Gotta hope that it’s not too late

To save the only thing that I’ve ever had

It was here in my own two hands

Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s fine

Maybe I’ll learn to walk the line

It’s been a very short run I must object

You’re not really gonna take it away just yet

I need ten more years to get to good

I just did what I thought I could (get away with)

Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s fine

Maybe I’ll learn to walk the line

I was an ugly kid with an ugly name

Never had much of a wild side to tame

But I grew up pretty and tall and fine

I just wanted to have my time (have some fun)

Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s fine

Maybe I’ll learn to walk the line

Give me one more chance to get things right

I wanna put it back the way it was overnight

But a change of ways seems a bit too much

I don’t really want to change my life a such

Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s fine

Maybe I’ll learn to walk the line

Maybe it’s fine, maybe it’s good

Maybe it’d message understood

Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s fine

Maybe I’ll learn to walk the line
