On Wisdom Hill by Jason Allen : Lyrics
 
 

All In All
(Written by Jason Allen)

When I'm down I don't feel beaten
Got a frown on my face
But I'm not brow beaten I've changed
Worn out inside
All the battles we've won
The wars we fight

I went down to that river I spoke about
Found some time in the trees to laugh about
All the things we've done

Went down to the town like I said I would
Found the people - they showed me a good time
Had a laugh and we joked about the way we've run

Making the war, making the run
Finding the sun too long
Making the best of what we've done

Yeah I got the postcard - heard you're alright
Living the day - it's night by you
Nil by mouth, nil by sunrise

Picking the pieces out of the bones again
Laughing loud when I read your letters back
What a crazy, mixed-up world we live in

Yeah I'm riding the wave again
Hoping to see
Yeah I'm riding the wave again
Waiting where it takes me
Well I'm riding, riding the wave
Riding the wave

All in all it's been a pretty good day
Around my way, around my way

All in all I'd say
It's been a pretty good day today
All in all
All in all

It's been a pretty good day today
Around my way, around my way
