lyrics

Takin' the High Road

I’ll rise above again
And be the better person in the end
Or so I’m always told
Pinchin’ pennies with a heart of gold
I do it all for you
I mean it to be true
But takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
I can’t take it
But I will

I guess it’s no surprise
These lowdown blues I’m feelin’ on the rise
But there’s no going back
To just play dumb or maybe cut some slack
I do it all for you
I mean it to be true
But takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
I can’t take it
But I will

I know you’re meaning well
But it’s a little hard to tell
It seems this road is paved
To lead straight to my grave

Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
Takin’ the high road is leaving me low
I can’t take it
But I will
