Go the Distance - Peyton Parrish

It's just another round, just another fight They try to knock me down, but you know I'm still all right And I know down inside, that I'm not like other men So I pick myself up, and I'm back on my feet again And I swear, I'm gonna go the distance, oh yeah So many times, I been down there on the ground But I gather up my strength and I go another round So many times I just wanna shout You may knock me down, but you still ain't knocked me out 'Cause I swear, I swear I'm gonna go the distance, yes I am Now I may be bleeding, but I'm on my feet I may be beaten up, but still I ain't been beat I may stumble and fall, and be tired as hell But I'm determined to be standing, when they ring the final bell 'Cause I swear, I wanna go the distance, yes I am Yes I swear, I'm gonna go the distance I'm going all the way with it I ain't gonna let nobody get me down I'm gonna go the distance. baby

I have often dreamed Of a far-off place Where a great warm welcome Will be waiting for me Where the crowds will cheer When they see my face And a voice keeps saying "This is where I'm meant to be" I will find my way I can go the distance I'll be there someday If I can be strong I know every mile Will be worth my while I would go 'most anywhere to feel like I belong I am on my way I can go the distance I don't care how far Somehow I'll be strong I know every mile Will be worth my while I would go 'most anywhere to find where I belong

She was down at the bar at the neighborhood Where gossip runs quick when the liquor's good Truth and drinks, they get watered down She overheard someone I was messin' around Well, people talk and that's understood But don't you listen to him, he's a fucking peckerwood And all that shit comes off my shoe Doesn't matter to me, but it matters to you You and I will go the distance Take it past the sun to the stars Your love is my only existence Your line is just the way I walk Got a pocket full of money, full tank of gas You're not just my woman, you're a piece of ass Well, sittin' right at home on a bar stool You can hold your liquor, but you can't shoot pool We get hungry on the drive home Maybe we got drunk, maybe we got stoned Well, late night at the drive-through I'll have a number one, she'll have a number two You and I will go the distance Take it past the sun to the stars Your love is my only existence Your line is just the way I walk Well, you and I will go the distance Take it past the sun to the stars Your love is my only existence Your line is just the way I walk I just wanna be with you Until my days are through You are my only truth You can spend my money however you want Throw it in the fire 'til it's all gone Defend my honor even when I'm wrong Your heart is like a pistol and your body's like a love song You and I will go the distance Take it past the sun to the stars Your love is my only existence Your line is just the way I walk Well, you and I will go the distance I'll take it past the sun to the stars Your love is my only existence Your line is just the way I walk
