Lyrics:

If my old truck was a horse, I'd have to shoot it
Lord, the day my ship came in, I was waitin' for a train
Every time I get a grip, I always lose it
I can't find the sunshine, for the rain

And you know I'm always sayin', I'm sorry
But you stand by me through it all
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall

Every time I think I'm off and runnin', I'm barely up to a crawl
Every time I get a leg up on the ladder of success, I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory, I was up for a promotion
But the boss's little brother got the call
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall


Every time I think I'm off and runnin', I'm barely up to a crawl
Every time I get a leg up, on the ladder of success, I slip and fall
Like last week down at the factory, I was up for a promotion
But the boss's little brother, got the call
Seems every time I make my mark
Somebody paints the wall

Seems like every time I make my mark
Somebody always paints the wall
