Something threw me in the dirt
Kinda got my feelings hurt
We was burnin' somewhere down the wind
I had to get up and climb that hill again

Little Lucy's such a doll
Like to climb her garden wall
But she only sees me as a friend
I got to get up and climb that hill again

I gotta bury my pride, drag this line
Over that hill one more time
Gotta get up in the morning, make my way
Over that hill again

I gotta bury my pride, drag this line
Over that hill one more time
Gotta get up in the morning, make my way
Over that hill again

Tempers flare and the words are spoken
You close one door and another opens
You hear the music and you're wondering

You got to get up and climb that hill
Get up and climb that hill
You got to get up and climb that hill again
