lyrics

I finally bit the bullet tried settling down
Work a 9-5 stop bumming around
Ain't no easy prospect especially for a guy like me
I worked real hard learned myself a trade
Found out real fast that the honest way
Left my wallet a little empty, but that's nothing new to me

Nobody said that it was easy
Sometimes all you can hope for is just to make it day to day
Nobody said that it was easy
There ain't no use complaining no one listens anyway

I found a good woman and I made her my Wife
Tried to walk the line and do what's right
Ain't no easy prospect especially for a guy like me
I never chased women or messed around
But the bottle was something that I couldn't put down
Wish that I could get back all the years that I pissed down the drain

Nobody said that it was easy
Sometimes all you can hope for is just to make it day to day
Nobody said that it was easy
There ain't no use complaining no one listens anyway

I can look you in the eye and honestly say
That I gave it a shot and tried things their way
All it did was help me realize just what I already knew
That it's not the point who's right or wrong
It's being honest with yourself about where you belong
I'm not putting it down, but there's just no place here
For a guy like me

Nobody said that it was easy
Sometimes all you can hope for is just to make it day to day
Nobody said that it was easy
There ain't no use complaining no one listens anyway

about

Sheldon Vance Charleston, West Virginia

I have never really considered myself a "musician" or "singer"...I am just a fan who loved music so much that simply listening wasn't enough involvement for me.

What I do may be acoustic, but it is aggressive and is put forth with every fiber of my heart and being. I just want to play...plain and simple...I honestly and humbly feel that the songs I have are worth sharing.
