Somebody Paints The Wall

[Verse 1]
If my old truck was a horse, I'd have to shoot it
Lord, the day my ship came in, I was waitin' for a train
Every time I get a grip, I always lose it
I can't find the sunshine, for the rain
Hon', you know I'm always sayin' I'm sorry
But you stand by me through it all
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall

[Bridge]
Every time I think I'm off and runnin'
I'm barely up to a crawl
Every time I get a leg up
On the ladder of success, I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory
I was up for a promotion
But the boss's nephew got the call
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
If my old truck was a horse, I'd have to shoot it
Lord, the day my ship came in, I was waitin' for a train
Every time I get some news, there's nothing to it
You're my only pleasure from the pain
Hon', you know I'm always sayin' I'm sorry
But you stand by me through it all
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall

[Tag]
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall
