George Jones

Stand On My Own Two Knees

I've tried everything I know to make you happy

Never knew someone could be so hard to please

Loving you is hard and I'm not sure I'll make it

But at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees.

I've still got my pride it's just that I misplaced it

Anyway it's better lost that no one sees

Maybe I'm not strong enough, right now, to hold you

But at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees.

It wasn't long ago you had me crawlin'

Oh, but look how far I've come, can't you see

Well, I know I'm still not walking tall but I'm trying

And at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees.

Yes, I know I'm still not walking tall but I'm trying

And at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees...
