[Lyric] Getting Somewhere (Sean McConnell)

[Verse 1]
My father, he's a good man
It took a while to understand that
We all do the best we can with what we can
He might've had too much to drink
I can hear the ice cubes clinking
In the kitchen while he smoked into the window fan
But I never wanted for a word
And I swallowed everything I heard
And I hold it like it's gold
And hear it all again

[Chorus]
Keep your hands on the ten and the two
Keep your eye on the ball and follow through
When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck
And though I pray you never do
If you gеt a little lost just say a prayer
And don't spend your wholе life getting somewhere

[Verse 2]
Some people have a hole to fill
They try and try but never will
'Cause they never got the love that we were built to have
But I never had a day go by
He didn't look me in the eye
Said, "I love you
I'm proud of you and I always will"
[Chorus]
Keep your hands on the ten and the two
Keep your eye on the ball and follow through
When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck
And though I pray you never do
If you get a little lost just say a prayer
And don't spend your whole life getting somewhere

[Bridge]
He'd say, "On a scale from one to ten
How's your heart and how you been?"
He still gets around to askin' every now and then

[Chorus]
Keep your hands on the ten and the two
Keep your eye on the ball and follow through
When you fall, get up, there's no such thing as luck
And though I pray you never do
When you get a little lost just say a prayer
And don't spend your whole life getting somewhere
Oh, no, no
Yeah, just getting somewhere
