I’ll Get By copyright 1982 by Robert Mosci

Zographia Publishing / ASCAP

 

Like a cat on the porch I’ve been standing all alone

And I’ve sat with my torch held on high

But I feel in my heart that I’m almost at the end

And I hope in my heart, I’ll get by

 

Maybe I’ll never see how this feeling came to be

It’s been so long since she said goodbye

My girl picked herself up, and went walking out the door

But I knew even then, I’d get by

 

And I’ll get by__, through the wind and rain

I’ll get by______

And I’ll try____, till I love again

I’ll get by______.

 

Well the truth it be told, it’s been hard to survive

Ain’t no use growing old just to die

But there’s this feeling in my heart, must be keepin’ me alive

There’s this feeling in my heart that gets me by

 

And I’ll get by, so my fate and learn

To get by______

And I’ll try____, ‘till my love returns

I’ll get by_______

 

She was just seventeen, if you know what I mean

She was part of a scene gone awry

But I know that someday, I will see her face again

I have hope, that’s the way I get by

 

And I’ll get by__, hangin’ on till then

I’ll get by________

And I’ll try___, till I love again

I’ll get by_________

 

I’ll get by___, through the wind and rain

I’ll get by________

And I’ll try___, till I love again

I’ll get by_________

 

I’ll get by__, sow my fate and learn

To get by________                  etc………
