Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, you know
I was always the first to arrive at the party
Oh, and the last to leave the scene of the crime
Well, it started with a couple of beers
And it went I don't know how many years
Like a runaway train headed for the end of the line
[Verse 2]
Well, I finally got around to admit that I might have a problem
But I thought it was just too damn big of a mountain to climb
Well, I got down on my knees and said
"Hey, I just can't go on livin' this way"
Guess I have to learn to live my life one day at a time
[Verse 3]
Oh, yeah
One day at a time
Oh, yeah
One day at a time
[Verse 4]
Oh, yeah
One day at a time
Oh, yeah
One day at a time
[Verse 5]
Well, I finally got around to admit that I was the problem
When I used to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine
All the friends I used to run with are gone
Lord, I hadn't planned on livin' this long
But I finally learned to live my life one day at a time
[Verse 6]
It was something it was too blind to see
I got help from something greater than me
And today, I learned to live my life one day at a time
