Gary Allan - I'm Doing My Best [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Single six months yesterday
Thought I ought a celebrate
So I went down to grab a couple beers
And I got so drunk I ripped my pants
I asked the bouncer for a dance
I thanked him as he threw me out
I woke up at a Waffle House
With a shiner and a wild brunette
She don't know my real name yet
Well no I ain't over you

[Chorus]
But I'm doing my best
Every day and every night
Hanging on by a thread
That's stretched just a little too tight
If I can't find some peace of mind
I'll take what I can get
I ain't doing much good
But I'm doing my best

[Verse 2]
I decided I'd get smart
And have a long talk with my heart
At some quiet spot outside of town
So I took my best friend's Pontiac
I drove it like a maniac
Right into the reservoir
I guess we ain't best friends no more
Just my luck a cop came by
Who I beat up in junior high
He said I better have a good excuse

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Some day I just might join the human race again
If I can ever find a place to show my face again
Yeah I'm doing my best

[Chorus]
