Die Tryin' Lyrics

The song Die Tryin' is performed by Guy Clark in the album named Cold Dog Soup in the year 1999 .



Don't be a stranger
If you're looking for a friend
If you want an even break
You've got to learn to bend

You don't have a song
If you don't know how to sing
You don't have a prayer
If you don't know how to dream

What's the use in dyin' if you don't die tryin'
If you don't die tryin', what's the use?
What's the use in flyin' if you don't die flyin'
If you don't die flyin', what's the use?

If you're gonna roll the dice
You gotta take a chance
Gotta get out on the floor
If you want to do the dance

If you don't know how to laugh
You'll never learn to cry
If you don't know how to fall
You'll never learn how to fly

What's the use in dyin' if you don't die tryin'
If you don't die tryin', what's the use?
What's the use in flyin' if you don't die flyin'
If you don't die flyin', what's the use?
