I’m trying to do good, to be good, I’m trying to try.
I want to be decent, kind, nice, a good guy.
I’ll be a person people can trust, a person on which all can rely.
I’ll try to be honest, sincere, genuine and I will not lie.
I’ll be respectful of others and their business, I won’t pry.
I’ll keep to myself, but I won’t be shy.
I’ll speak my mind to people and look in their eyes
This all seems unrealistic, my hopes are indeed high
But maybe with all that open space, I’ll find I can fly
And maybe I’ll find other people who think like I
Maybe I’ll join these people I find in the sky.
And maybe they will know why
Why is it so hard to be a good guy
