Peter Tosh - Pick Myself Up

Sittin' in the morning sun,
And watching all the birds passing by.
Oh, how sweet they sing,
And oh, how much I wish that I could fly.

And I try, I said I try.
I try, I really try, try, try.

But I got to pick myself up,
Dust myself off.
Start all over, again.
I got to pick myself up,
And dust myself off.
Start all over, again.

Sittin' in the midday sun,
And wondering where my meal's coming from?
After working so hard,
Not even piece of bread at the yard.

And I said I try,
Oh Lord, I try, said I try.
I really try, try, try.

But I got to pick myself up,
And dust myself off.
Start all over, again.
I got to pick myself up,
And dust myself off.
And a start all over, again.

Sittin' in the evening sun,
And watching the same birds passing by.
Sittin' and wondering,
And waiting for the time for me to fly.

And I try, I said I try,
Good Lord, I try.
I really try, try, try.

But I got to pick myself up,
And dust myself off.
Start all over, again.
I got to pick myself up,
Over and over,
And dust myself off.
And start all over, again.

So long and I just find,
It was just a waste of time.
So long and I just find,
I been been wasting all my time.

I've got to pick myself up..
