Description
After I'd posted the old recording I'd done of 'Love is Strange' a couple of weeks ago, people said i still sounded the same ( Ha Ha). Well this new song will put those comments away for good as i tried to do something in a similar vane, because believe me, nothing is as silky smooth as it was back then, not even my neck LOL. Nevertheless I hope you like this Bluesy- Soul- Pop type number (I've given up on guessing Genres)

Lyrics
Tryin’ to Live
Some people treat each other really bad,
While others do their best to make ‘em glad,
Some try to stab each other in the back,
While others lead you up the wrong path,
That’’s what you get, when you’re tryin’ to live.
Some only want you for what you can give,
Others will stand by you as long as you live,
I’ve known a few who are just out to deceive,
But nothing good will come from that, I truly believe
You meet them all, while you’re tryin’ to live.
Chorus.
Everyone has problems to block their way,
Never leave ‘em standin’ til another day,
Face ‘em full head on, give it your all,
Keep lookin’ straight ahead and then you won’t fall.
ad lib and “ We’re all just tryin’ to live”
I’ve walked a path that’s been long and wide,
From all my problems I would never hide,
I’ve stood my ground, looked trouble in the face,
Until they disappeared without a trace,
And all because I’m tryin’ to live.
I’m gonna give you some advice for free,
Just take life as it comes and soon you’ll see,
That things will settle down and find their own place,
Don’t be impatient, it’s not a race,
And that’s called tryin’ to live.
Instrumental break.
Repeat chorus and last two verses.
