One Day at a Time
written: J. Walsh
lead vocal: J. Walsh

Well you know, I was always the first to arrive at the party
Oh, 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 admittin' that I might have a problem
But I thought it was just too damn big of a mountain to climb
Well, I got down on my knees and said, "Hey
I just can't go on living this way
Guess I 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

Oh yeah, one day at a time
Oh yeah, one day at a time

Well, I finally got around to admittin' that I was the problem
When I use to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine
All the friends I use to run with are gone
Lord, I hadn't planned on living this long
I have to learn to live my life one day at a time

It was something I was too blind to see
I got help from something greater then me
Now I have to learn to live my life one day at a time
