Grand Funk Railroad

Stuck in the county jail
Nobody here's gonna' pay my bail
A thirty days with a smelly drunk
A turn-key callin' me a dirty punk
I got to pick myself up
And stop lookin' back
I've got to move straight ahead
And stop lookin' back
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, 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
I've got to move straight ahead
And stop lookin' back
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
