I've never been that good at being good
I've got a handful of ex wives to show
I can lay a heart to waste
But I've learned from my mistakes
And I hope I'm gettin' better as I go
Whiskey is a demon I've been wrestlin'
More than once it's had me on the ropes
I put it down, I pick it back up
I won't lie man, it's been tough
But I hope I'm gettin' better as I go
There' a reason
And she waits for me while I'm out on the road
She's my beacon
She keeps me pointed where I need to go
A beat up old guitar, pen to paper
Is the only way I know how to show
This heart that beats in me
And the best I may not be
But I hope I'm gettin' better as I go
Yeah, I hope you're listenin', babe
I love you more every day
And I hope I'm gettin' better as I go
