lyrics

"Make A Way"
Written and performed by The Rough & Tumble
Copyright Penny Jar Publishing 2021

Not gonna lose by not having the answers
Not gonna miss your one shot by taking a chance, no
Can’t hit the bottom if you level the way--
Make a way

V1
Stub your toe, you’ve still got nine
Lose every finger and you can have mine
Won’t be easy, but it can be kind
To make a way.

Not gonna lose by not having the answers
Not gonna miss your one shot by taking a chance, no
Can’t hit the bottom if you level the way--
Make a way

V2
The straight and the narrow don’t offer much shade
The road to Hell’s the same as Heaven, just unpaved.
Won’t be pretty, but it sure is brave
To make a way.

Not gonna lose by not having the answers
Not gonna miss your one shot by taking a chance, no
Can’t hit the bottom if you level the way--
Make a way

Not gonna lose by not having the answers
Not gonna miss your one shot by taking a chance, no
Can’t hit the bottom if you level the way--
(So) make a way.
We can go there together-- are you going my way?
Make a way.
