Letters from Jett - Have My Day Lyrics

Standing on the side of 35
Doing what I can to stay alive
I'll be right here holding this sign
Everyday at 2

I lost my wife
And my kids are gone
For this country I fought
Brave and strong
I'm the words to every country song
That you've ever heard

And I drink, to ease the pain
And I sing, to bring on the rain

I've been shot down, beat down
Tore down, turned around
Every single day
I've been punched out, kicked out
Locked out, cussed out
In every single way
But Lord I pray
In some way
I'm going to have my day

I'm up by daylight everyday
Put on my shoes
I sit and pray
I thank God everyday
The skies are still blue
I walk everyday with my head facing down
It's not what you think
There's change on the ground
It keeps me fed and when it can
It makes a call to you

And I drink, to ease the pain

I woke up this morning with the sun in my eyes
I was feeling Good, I was feeling fine
You were standing right there to take away my pain
And you stopped the rain
