Lyrics:
Boy you’re gonna tire
Yourself right out pretending
That you can write a happy ending
To this story by yourself
‘Cause it’s a long way
Across the wire
Ain’t no shame in falling
Just in being ashamed of calling
For a friend to come and help
Yeah it’s a long way
Across the wire
And it’s been a bad day
Boys you’re gonna tire
Yourselves right out pretending
That you can write a happy ending
To this story by yourselves
‘Cause it’s a long way
Across the wire
Ain’t no shame in falling
Just in being ashamed of calling
For a friend to come and help
Yeah it’s a long way
Across the wire
And it’s been a bad day
But I bet it’ll get a little better
Bet it’ll get a little better
Boy let a buddy in I bet it’ll get a little better
Whoop
Let it get better
Let everybody in
‘Cause buddy with everybody in I bet it’ll get a little better
We ain’t gonna tire
Ourselves out pretending
That we can write a happy ending
To this story by ourselves
‘Cause it’s a long way
Across the wire
Ain’t no shame in falling
Just in being ashamed of calling
For a friend to come and help
Yeah it’s a long way
Across the wire
And it’s been a bad day
But I bet it’ll get a little better
Bet it’ll get a little better
Boy let a buddy in I bet it’ll get a little better
But I bet it’ll get a little better
Bet it’ll get a little better
Boy let a buddy in I bet it’ll get a little better
Whoop
Let it get better
Let everybody in
‘Cause buddy with everybody in I bet it’ll get a little better
