It's an everyday battle
Just tryin' to break even
No, there ain't no gettin' ahead
When you're just gettin' by
But she's standing on the front porch
When I get home in the evening
That's how I know everything's gonna be all right

I've crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I don't know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her love

There are days I wanna give up
Declare the world a winner
When the bills and the dog gone boss
Won't cut me no slack
But when we're turnin' these lights down
And I'm lyin' there with her
There ain't a rock on the road of life
I can't get past

I've crossed rivers with her kisses
Come through hard times with her soft touch
I don't know how but she makes it look easy
Getting me over mountains with her love
Getting me over mountains with her love
