well you know i was always the first to arrive at the party
and the last to leave the scene of the crime
well it started with a couple of beers
and it went I don't know how many years
like a runaway train headed for the end of the line
well i finally got around to admit that I might have a problem
but I thought it was just to damn big a mountain to climb
well I got down on my knees and said Hey
I just can't go on living this way
I guess I'll have to learn to live my life one day at a time
oh yeah
one day at a time
oh yeah
one day at a time
guitar solo
oh yeah
one day at a time
oh yeah
one day at a time
well I finally got around to admit that I was a problem
when i used to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine
all the friends i used to run with are gone
lord i hadn't planned on living this long
i'll have to learn to live my life one day at a time
it was something I was to blind to see
i got help from something greater than me
and I'll have to learn to live my life one day at a time
