Stuck in the county jail,
Nobody here gonna` pay my bail.
Thirty days with a smelly drunk,
A turn-key callin` me a dirty punk.
I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin` back.
And I`ve got to move straight ahead, stop lookin` back.
CHORUS
Shoot for the stars when my eyes can`t see the starlight.
Reach for the sun in the night.
Stop lookin` back at the times I was defeated,
I pick myself up, I move straight ahead, I stop lookin` back.
Stranded! Nothing worse.
I`m livin` on coffee, I got an empty purse.
I`m dreamin` `bout blue eyes lookin` my way,
Hopin` my dreams don`t blow away.
I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin` back.
And I`ve got to move straight ahead, stop lookin` back.
CHORUS
