"All My Life" lyrics - WALTER TROUT

Streets are getting meaner
So hard to survive
Doin' all you can to stay alive

There's a stranger on the corner
Waitin there for you
He knows that you are only passing through
The only way to make it
In this faithless town
's to turn away when something's going down

All my life, all my life, I have tried to do the best I can
All my life, all my life, lord you know I am just a man

's one day at a time
You borrow beg and steal
But if you wanna make a deal
Take a look around you
The dogs are are closing in
They don't care who you are or where you bin
Crying out for jesus beggin him for grace
Can he see the fear upon your face

All my life, all my life, I have tried to do the best I can
All my life, all my life, lord you know I am just a man

You hide your face in silence
Your back against the wall
You feel nobody hears you when you call
Making your confession
You hang your head and pray
Lord why does it have to be this way

All my life, all my life, I have tried to do the best I can
All my life, all my life, lord you know I am just a man
