Tim McGraw We Carry On song lyrics

He hasn't seen a drop of rain for months it seems

Rollin' river is nothing; but a tricklin' stream

The crops are dyin' in the harsh sun light

The dust on his tongue is dry

The fatted calf is down to skin and bones

We carry on

Alone in the city and she's only seventeen

The boy left her black and blue on the streets so mean

Just twelve weeks along and she's got a life inside

Said she's never ever felt so alone

She walks in the shelter, they say 'welcome home'

And we carry on

When our lives come undone... we carry on

Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on

As the dark surrenders to the dawn

We were born to overcome

We carry on

Beyond the picket fences and the oil wells

The happy endings and the fairy tales

Is the reality of shattered lives and broken dreams

We carry on

Carry on

It's the family that grieves for a lost loved one

It's the soldier who won't leave till the job is done

It's the addict trying to turn his life around

It's pickin' yourself up off the ground when you've been knocked down

We carry on

When our lives come undone... we carry on

Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on

As the dark surrenders to the dawn

We were born to overcome

We carry on

When our lives come undone... we carry on

Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on

As the dark surrenders to the dawn

We were born to overcome

We carry on

Carry on

We carry on

He stands in the field, cooled by the winds of change

She smiles as her baby moves and it starts to rain
