Making it

(Edward McBride)

This song describes the hopes and dreams of a poor cotton picker in the Southern United States. He picks cotton by day and picks on his guitar at night. He stays humble as he starts to get noticed and gets signed up by an agent. The rise is rapid as he soon opens for some big stars in Nashville. Through it all he remains humble.

I work in the cotton fields Just picking all day long I sing all the country songs Strum the guitar at night Nashville seems so far away I will get there someday I just need a break Not a head fake Chorus Do not forget your poor, poor roots You never had any boots Sometimes not eating Just getting a beating Be humble, be humble Then you will not stumble He heard me at the country fair His name was David Blair He walked with me, he talked with me He signed me on the spot I meet my idols They want to help I only saw him from afar And now I open for the big star Chorus Do not forget your poor, poor roots You never had any boots Sometimes not eating Just getting a beating Be humble, be humble Then you will not stumble

Feelings about your ex can get pretty complicated. Sometimes, it boils down to the fact that you miss love or the way they loved you, not necessarily that person. Sometimes you have to remind yourself of that.
