High Hopes

Pills won't work and the bottle just runs me dry
Yeah, I can hear 'em all saying that a new crop's passed me by
Yeah, it used to be something, now it ain't nothing, you see
But I feel a little luck with a wildcard up my sleeve
I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hanging on the rope
Still, I got high hopes
Everybody's your friend when you're standing on a mountaintop
Oh, but when you take a slide, well, it's like they all just forgot
Yeah, you're just another number, just another sucker, you see
Another horse in the stable, but you ain't heard the last of me yet
I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hanging on the rope
Still, I got high hopes
Ooh, yeah
I got high hopes
Ooh, yeah
I got high hopes
Life's like a hammer, it'll slowly just beat you down
Got a boot to the neck, but you're screaming, "Don't make a sound."
It's like a heavyweight battle, standing but you're black and blue
When you look to the heavens, hell
I'm running, you can never lose, yeah
I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hanging on the rope
Still, I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got high hopes
I got one good hand, but it's barely hanging on the rope
Still, I got high hopes
