Back On My Feet lyrics

I've been angry And I have strayed I said words i never thought that I could say You were sadly sweet Like an old bar song (or a Wilco song) But I'll be back up on my feet before too long You could say you wanted me If I said it first Words rang hollow And the emptiness became a thirst Now I could drink those words And they would make me strong I'd be back up on my feet before too long I'd be back up on my feet before too long Before too long If you'd met me now You never would have stuck around No, you never would have stuck around So I will lay me down By the salty sea And let the water pull the sand over my body To wash me clean Like a river stone And I'll be back up on my feet before too long Yeah, I'll be back up on my feet before too long Back on my feet Back up on my feet Back on my feet Back on my feet
