James House and The Blues Cowboys - Ain't No Way Lyrics

If I live to be a hundred
And someone says your name
I know it'll take me right back here
And again I'll feel this pain
It's a forgone conclusion
No matter what I do
I can try I can try
But there
Ain't no getting over you

I can drown my soul in whiskey
Lord knows that I've tried
But all is does is bring you back
And make me wanna die
I can tell my woes to jesus
Hope that someone cares
And when do he'll smile at me
Tell me life ain't fair
I can cry I can hide I can pray until I'm blue
But there ain't no way of getting over you

I can move to New York city
Even change my name
But your memory just finds me
Loves to play that game
I can only surrender
Forgive myself of me
Down beg for mercy
That someday I might be free
I can try I can try
But no matter what I do
There ain't no way of getting over you
