V1.

Same old story,

I'm totally low.

Got a feelin' here that I think you know, know, know, 

know.



I'm tired of runnin'

And needing more time.

I been way too long on the losing side and I came to 

find...



CHORUS:

It's a long road for the good guys.

It's a long road for a simple man

To get a helping hand.

When all you got is a single shot 

You do the best job that you can.

Cause it's a long road for a simple man.



V2.

We're brokenhearted

And barely whole.

There is little left that we can control, oh oh oh.



And we get so weary

Gettin' blood outta stone

But you push on through to the heart of you even though 

you know...



CHORUS:

It's a long road for the good guys.

It's a long road for a simple man

To get a helping hand.

When all you got is a single shot 

You do the best job that you can.

Cause it's a long road for a simple man.
