Jerry Jeff Walker

Gettin' By

Ahh buckaroos, Scamp Walker time again

I'm trying to slide one by you once more

Don't matter how you do it, you see, just do it like you know it

I've been down this road once or twice before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day

Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall

Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low

Just living my life easy come, easy go

Last week I was thinking, it's record time again

And I could see Mike making faces in this floor

Ahh Mike, don't you worry, something's bound to come out

Besides, I've been down this road once before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day

Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall

Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low

Just living my life easy come, easy go

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day

Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall

Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low

Just living my life easy come, easy go

Income tax overdue, now I think she is too

Been busted and I'll probably get busted some more

But I'll catch it all later, can't let 'em stop me now

I've been down this road once or twice before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day

Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall

Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low

Just living my life easy come, easy go

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day

Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall

Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low

Just living my life easy come, easy go

Living my life easy come, easy go
