Make Me a Name Songtext
von Will Moseley

And here we go now

Boss man calls and says, "Son, you know you′re late again"
I better take the day, so he don't see the shape I′m in
I spent all night hurtin' myself, so I don't hurt you
I can hide my eyes and tell last-night′s lies
But we both know that it ain′t true

There's so many things out there
That brings a man to his knees
There ain′t nothin' that I′ve found
I won't do if I please


It is what it is, and it ain′t what it ain't
Do the best that I can, and I don't if I can′t
And that old light at the end of the tunnel might be a train
I keep pushin′, I keep pullin', I keep tryin′ to make me a name

I've heard "no" a few times, but I ain′t heard "yes"
I lie around and write these songs, 'cause it′s what I do best
All my friends they tell me I ought to pack it in
I sat back with a drunken smile, and I say it again

It is what it is, and it ain't what it ain't
I do the best that I can, and I don′t have a game
And that old light at the end of the tunnel might be a train
I keep pushin′, I keep pullin', I keep tryin′ to make me a name (here we go)


It is what it is, and it ain't what it ain′t
I do the best that I can, Lord, and I don't have a game
And that old light at the end of the tunnel might be a train
I keep pushin′, I keep pullin', I keep tryin' to make me a name
I keep pushin′, I keep pullin′, I keep tryin'
Lord, I keep tryin′ to make me a name
