Tryin’ To Beat The Morning Home Lyrics By T G Sheppard

    drunk and cold
    can’t get no help from nobody
    i’d sell my soul to find
    one more drink left in that bottle

    they say that i’m worthless
    that all hope for me is gone
    heaven help me
    trying to beat the morning home

    lord don’t let the daylight
    show the shame that’s on my face
    just let me hide in my disgrace
    just let me hide in my disgrace

    my woman’s there
    i’ll be she’s sitting there just waiting
    she won’t ask where
    where i’ve been or why i’m drinking

    she knows it’s hopeless
    but she keeps hanging on
    heaven help me
    heaven help me
    trying to beat the morning home

    lord i know i’ve tried many times before
    but this time i really mean it so help me
    trying to beat the morning home
