Ukulele Jim Crawlin' Away song lyrics

Give me something to hold on to

I need a reason to stay with you

I'm trying to leave here, but it just don't show

I've been doing it real slow

I've been crawlin' away

I let a woman get the best of me

Still, I'm hanging around so helplessly

I lack the courage to just cut and run

Even after all you've done

I've been crawlin' away

The road is long, it's been calling me

It brings me down onto my knees, yeah

I've been trying to stand up on my own

But being held down here is all I've ever known

I wish I had a way to make you see

I just want to be free

I've been crawlin' away

The road is long, it's been calling me

It brings me down onto my knees

Lord, I've been crawlin' away

I've been crawlin' away

I want to leave today

I've been crawlin' away

Oh lord

I've been crawlin' away
