I'll Do My Best

I came here with nothing, I'm gonna leave with less

Lately there's been something layin' heavy on my chest

It's hard for me to say it but I'm ready to confess

I've known for a while now that I haven't been my best

It's hard to start a fire when it rains

Try to satisfy her for a change, I'll do my best

Don't settle for nothing less than my best

I been undecided now for most of my life

I took a vow to change this when you said you'd be my wife

Now I've got not only myself to amuse

I gotta try to make you happy, there's no excuse

A cold day in springtime when you took my name

It's down to me to prove it wasn't taken in vain

It's hard to start a fire when it rains

Try to satisfy her for a change, I'll do my best

Don't settle for nothing less than my best

And it's no good makin' promises

If they fail and go wrong

I've been a fool for chasin' happiness

When it was there all along, all along

Hard to start a fire when it rains

Try to satisfy her for a change

Hard to start a fire when it rains

Try to satisfy her for a change, I'll do my best

Don't settle for nothing less than my best

No good makin' promises

If they fail and go wrong

Been a fool for chasin' happiness

When it was there all along

And it's no good makin' promises

If they fail and go wrong

I've been a fool for chasin' happiness

When it was there all along
