Country Colored Memories
When life disappoints you, Look for the good
There’s much ugly out there, so why should you brood
You already know what you should expect
Get it in your mind what you need to reject
They’ll try to get on your last nerve
But don’t give them what they deserve
Mainly because you’re better than that
You’ll rise above their ugly backlash
Make it up in your mind what you will do
And Be determined to follow it through
The best will come from what’s inside you
bypass the obstacles and do what you do
