A Day at a Time

And if you must live in this mess

Where do you turn?

And if you must carry this weight

Where do you learn?

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess

It's got to be a day at a time

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess

It's got to be a day at a time

Day at a time

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

And if you must queue to the line

Where's the joy to the stride?

You need a road map, someone to cut some slack

And you need soldiers on your side

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess

It's got to be a day at a time

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess (I mean it)

It's got to be a day at a time

Big wheels will spin and your lifeline grows thin

But it's got to be a day at a time

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

You look behind you, you look around you

There's nothing but wind

You need a shelter, a shaver to hide

But all you get's a day at a time

And now you're picking up

And now you're picking up

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess (Yeah)

It's got to be a day at a time (You see it's got to be)

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess

It's got to be a day at a time (And now you're picking up)

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess (One day at a time)

It's got to be a day at a time (One day)

It's got to be a day at a time, I guess (Only way to be there)

It's got to be a day at a time (It's got to be a day at a time)

You see, we gotta be there

And now you're picking up

And don't you know by now?

And don't you know by now?

Big wheels will spin and your lifeline grows thin

But it's got to be a day at a time

Day at a time
