Charley Pride Lyrics
"Now I Can Live Again"

(Jack Clement)

When my baby left me
She left trouble all around
She left a tangled mind and a tear in my eye
And my heart was sorrow bound.

But when I woke up this morning
I brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Then I looked all around for a little tear
But the little tear wasn't there.

Now I can walk in the sunshine again
Now I can hold my head up high
Now I can walk like the man I have been
Now I can live again.

--- Instrumental ---

I've spent some long nights thinking
I guess I did some drinking too
I've cried at least the million tears
And I had my share of the blues.

But today it's finally over
The world looks brighter to me now
I'm still here and she's still gone
But it's all right somehow.

Now, I can walk in the sunshine again
Now I can hold my head up high
So I'll say goodbye to my drinking friends
Now I can live again.

Now I can give again...
