Gettin’ Me Over Mountains Lyrics

Tracy Byrd

(larry boone/paul nelson/tracy byrd)
Its an everyday battle
Just tryin to break even
No, there aint no gettin ahead
When youre just gettin by
But shes standing on the front porch
When I get home in the evening
Thats how I know everythings gonna be all right
Ive crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I dont know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her love
There are days I wanna give up
Declare the world a winner
When the bills and the dog gone boss
Wont cut me no slack
But when were turnin these lights down
And Im lyin there with her
There aint a rock on the road of life
I cant get past
Ive crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I dont know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her love
Getting me over mountains with her love
