Only God Knows Why
written & performed by Kid Rock
from the album Devil Without A Cause

I've been sittin' here
tryin' to find myself
I get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
Lookin’ for the payback
Listen for the playback
They say that every man bleeds just like me
And now I feel like number one
Yet I'm last in life
I watch my younger son
And it helps to pass the time
I take too many pills it helps to ease the pain
I made a couple of dollar bills still I feel the same

Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
A lot of folks f*** with me
It's hard to hang out in crowds
I guess that's the price you pay
To be some big shot like I am
Outstretched hands and one night stands
Still I can't find love

And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around
People don't know about the things I say and do
They don't understand about the s*** that I've been through
It's been so long since I've been home
I've been gone....I've been gone for way too long

Maybe I forgot all things I miss
Oh somehow I know there's more to life than this
I said it too many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in
And people get what they deserve

Still I ain't seen mine
No I ain't seen mine
I've been giving just ain't been gettin'
I've been walking down that line

So I think i'll keep on walking
With my head held high
I'll keep moving on and only God knows why
Only God.....only God
Only God knows why

Only God....knows....why why why only God knows why

Take me to the river's...edge
Wont’t ya take me to the river...hey hey hey
