Trying So Hard to Forget

You know life can be so sad

Sometimes you just sit right down, and you'll cry

You know life can be so sad

Sometimes you just sit right down, and you'll cry

Sometimes your luck, it gets so bad

Baby, you'll be better off if you should die

I've tried so hard not to remember

Baby, I've tried so hard to forget

I've tried so hard not to remember

People I've tried so hard to forget

I can't stop my mind wandering

Back to the days I was just a down trodden kid

Some folks get such a good life

You know, they just get on the big train, and they ride

Some folk get such a good life

You know, they just get on that big train, and they ride

I would spend most of my days

Running and hiding from the world outside

If I ever get to heaven

You know, that sure would ease my worried mind

Ever get to heaven

You know, that sure would ease my worried mind

When I find that place in the sky

People, I'm gonna leave this old world behind
