Aim a Little Higher Lyrics by Charlie Peacock

Everything That’s On My Mind

0

Just about sundown on the levee road
Near the old fishing hole
Teaching me to shoot straight and true
Was your only goal
You threw a can up in the air and smiled
I pulled the trigger, missed by a mile
You said...
Aim a little higher and you can't miss
Bless that can with a shotgun kiss now
Aim a little higher, try it again
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
In later years, on a river of tears
I drifted home for a while
Since shame was the only glory I'd ever known
I didn't change my style
First night home, I got drunk and confused
Mistook you for a fool, you werе not amused
You said...
Aim a little higher, 'causе you're not living
All this taking, son, and never giving's
Gonna catch up to you like a ball of fire
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little higher, you're shooting too low
Aim for the dirt and you'll never know
Glorious redemption or heavenly hope
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
And in those deceptive moments
In those deceptive days
When the dung and the mire
Look like the high wire
Will there be anyone
Who loves me enough to say...
You gotta aim a little higher
Aim a little higher, aim a little higher
You gotta aim a little higher
Aim a little higher, aim a little higher
Aim a little higher, 'cause you're not living
All this taking, son, and never giving's
Gonna catch up to you like a ball of fire
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little higher, you're shooting too low
Aim for the dirt and you'll never know
Glorious redemption or heavenly hope
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
