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
