I'm On My Way

The Proclaimers

I'm on my way from misery to happiness today

I'm on my way from misery to happiness today

I'm on my way to what I want from this world

And years from now you'll make it to the next world

ANd everything that you receive up yonder

Is what you gave to me the day I wandered



I took a right, I took a right turning yesterday

I took a right, I took a right turning yesterday

I took the road that brought me to your home town

I took the bus to streets that I could walk down

I walked the streets to find the one I'd looked for

I climbed the stair that led me to your front door



CHORUS

And now that I don't want for anything

I'd have Al Jolson sing "I"m sitting on top of the world."



I'll do my best, I'll do my best to do the best I can

I'll do my best, I'll do my best to do the best I can

To keep my heart from jumping through my mouth dear

To keep the past, the past and not the present

To try and learn fwhen you teach me a lesson



CHORUS
