My Own Damn Way Lyrics by Tom O’Connor

Night Owl

2021

[Verse 1]
If I could get out of my own damn way
I swear I wouldn't drink so much
I'd learn when to keep my big mouth shut
And I'd stop making all the same mistakes
[Refrain]
If I could get out of my own damn way
If I could get out of my own damn way
[Verse 2]
I think I'd think a whole lot less
I'd get rid of all my stress
And I'd quit carrying around that extra weight
If I could get out of my own damn way
[Chorus]
At times, I know that I'm my own worst enemy
Keeping myself from where I want and where I need to be
But if I never change, at least I can say
I did it all my own damn way
[Verse 3]
If I could get out of my own damn way
I bet I'd finally settle down
Yeah, that'd make my mama proud
Maybe give her a grandkid someday
[Refrain]
If I could get out of my own damn way
If I could get out of my own damn way
[Verse 4]
I'd pick up the phonе and I'd call my dad
I'd leave the past whеre it's at
I'd say I love you before it's too late
If I could get out of my own damn way
[Chorus]
At times, I know that I'm my own worst enemy
Keeping myself from where I want and where I need to be
But if I never change, at least I can say
I did it all my own damn way
[Verse 5]
But if I could get out of my own damn way
I'd talk a little bit more to God
Like He ain't something I forgot
I found the time to fold my hands and pray
[Outro]
If I could get out of my own damn way
I swear I'd be in a better place
If I could get out of my own damn way
